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, it is a lovely Colheita with great finesse and concentration. If the Barao de Vilar 1970 is all about power and grip, the 1977 is softer, almost feminine in style, yet complex and bright. A beautiful Port.
