A thirty-year-old tawny of incredible complexity and intensity.
Tasting note
A wine of incredible complexity and intensity. Even brownish-orange, with aromas of vanilla, dried fruit and lightly spicy notes. Soft and balanced on the palate, with a wonderfully long finish.
The story
An age-dated tawny is a blend of wines from several years, aged together for a long time in oak casks. The number on the label indicates the average character of the blend.
Food pairing
Ideal with aged cheese and pâté, dried fruit, foie gras with aubergine and nuts, brownies, walnut bread with goat’s cheese and chocolate cake.
The producer
Kopke was founded in Porto in 1638 by the German merchant family Kopke, representatives of the Hanseatic League, and is the oldest Port house in the world. In 1922 the house bought Quinta de São Luiz, on the left bank of the Douro between Régua and Pinhão, with old vines of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinto Cão. Kopke is best known for its Colheitas and old tawnies, drawn from one of the deepest stocks of old Port in the Douro.
Since 2006 Kopke has belonged to the Sogevinus group, renamed Kopke Group in 2025. Since 2022 Carla Tiago has been winemaker and master blender for all Kopke Ports.
