Barao de Vilar Colheita Port 1970

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

From a truly classic Vintage and very much in the Barao de Vilar style. Caramel, roasted coffee bean, dried fruits and toasted wood, slightly lifted on the nose with good amount of acidity and a silky texture. The finish is long and clean.
