Kopke Vintage Port 2000

€ 69.00

Kopke’s unique quality derives from very low yield Touriga Nacional grapes of over 100-yr-old vines and 50% of other varietals averaging 80 years. No wonder that these vintage ports rank among the top releases, since grapes are harvested from very old vines of up to 100-plus years, yielding small amounts of very intense fruit from Kopke’s famous Font Santa vineyard at Quinta São Luiz with its many gold-medal winning vintages. Quinta manager and viticulturist José Manuel Manso is shown with one of the ancient Touriga Nacional vines.
