Kopke Colheita Port 2001 75cl

Kopke Colheita Port 2001 

A Kopke of high quality, made from one single harvest. A colheita wine matures in oak barrels for periods of time that can vary, but never less than 7 years. It is then bottled and sold according to the demands of the market. 

• Rusty ruby in colour with a tawny edge
• The nose offers raspberry, raisins, toffee, cherry cough drop and mocha aromas
• Medium weight, warming and dry on the palate
• Laser like acidity keeps it in check, with flavours of strawberry, citrus, a back drop of pecan and some mild-mannered mouth coating tannins
• The finish is long but shows a bit of the warming spirit
• Chill before serving which reveals all its finesse and sophistication
• Best served at a temperature between 12 and 14°C

Kopke colheita port 2001 pairs with desserts made with caramel, dried fruits and spices, like caramel fondant with apple and ginger jelly and cheeses of minimum intensity.

Every wine tells a story. Kopke's Colheitas, however, tell a unique story. To taste a port is to taste history and in the case of this vintage port, it means remembering a remarkable event like the beginning of the third millennium of our current Era.
