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
Medium tawny color. A very well balanced nose, with dominating notes of citrus. The palate delivers wonderful complex layers of apricots, honey, fig and caramel. Excellent structure with good acidity evolving through nuts and spices at the end, amidst a near perfect balance. An elegant finish with notes of bitter chocolate and cigar box.
