** 97 Points (exceptional) - Mark Squires Wine Advocate **

This Colheita port from the excellent 1953 harvest has been stored in oak barrels until being bottled especially for Vintage Wine and Port.

The 1953 Colheita port has an attractive amber colour. Dense and fragrant nose, dominated by the dried fruit aromas, spicy notes and a sweet touch of caramel. Complex and wonderfully structured, it’s intense and extremely elegant. Unctuous and very soft, with an endless and unique finish.

Reviews: "“The great Colheitas are typically to me the best of the tawnies, special and distinctive” Mark Squires, The Wine Advocate, Special web-only article: “Colheitas: The greatest Ports we don’t talk that much about”, Originally posted Oct 2012, revised Jan 2013.

The 1953 Colheita expresses all the finesse and sophistication when combined with caramel desserts, dried fruits and spices, like caramel fondant with apple and ginger jelly, tatin tart, burnt cream and chesses of minimum intensity. Despite the age, the freshness remains. Extraordinary marriage with a refreshing tangerine parfait. The multiplicity of possible harmonies is amazing.
