Barao de Vilar Colheita Port 1934

Description

A Tawny Port from a single harvest and exceptional quality, aged for a minimum of 7 years in cask, representing less than 1% of the total production of Port every year. Like a Vintage Port, a Colheita is only released when the best conditions are gathered. Whilst it ages, its young fruity and fresh aromas develop through oxidation to create an increased smoothness harmony and complexity.

Tasting Notes

Very concentrated with a touch of VA that brings extra liveliness and freshness. The aromatic profile is stunning, with notes of old wood, dried fruits, figs, butterscotch and citrus. The aftertaste is endless. 1934 is a great year for Colheita Ports, and the Barao de Vilar along with Niepoort and Dalva is one of the finest. It is powerful yet extremely elegant and balanced.
