Kopke Colheita Port 1983

€ 135.00

Vivid golden color. Rich and elegant nose, combining dry fruit flavors with aromatic wood notes. This Kopke portwine of 1983 harvest is soft and silky on the palate, full of ripe figs and sweet tooth flavors. A sense of depth, a distinction of elegance and style. Perfect and breathtaking end.

Colheitas are seen as very high-quality Tawnies. Comes from a single harvest and has spent at least 7 years in French oak barrels of about 550 liters. Colheita port wine represents less than 1% of the total annual production of postage. Like Vintage, a Colheita port is only released when the best conditions are met and after approval of the IDVP (Instituto dos Vinhos do Douro e do Porto)

Food pairing

Delicious with slightly sweetened desserts such as crème brûlée, dried fruits and as an aperitif . Great with a handful of nuts, caramel pecan pie, milk chocolate or old Dutch cheese

Grapes: Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, Tinto Cão, Touriga Franca

Alcoholcontent

20%

Store & Serve

Like all tawny port, colheita is best when it is chilled like a white Burgundy (14 ° C) and served in small white wine glasses (Riedel Vinum Riesling for example). Remains enjoyable up to a few months (4 to 6 months) after opening, provided you always close the bottle with the original stopper and store it at a constant temperature of about 12 degrees.
