Kopke Colheita Port 1952

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 & orange with a greenish rim. Beautiful nose of mandarin orange, sugared vanilla and raisins. The palate is explosive, delivering wonderful complex layers of dried apricots, orange peel, caramelized nuts and dates. Excellent structure with good acidity and a very long aftertaste that stays in the mouth for minutes.
