Description
1986 Kopke Colheita Port
The 1986 Kopke Colheita Port is drawn from a single harvest and matured for decades in seasoned oak casks before bottling, allowing time to shape its balance and complexity. Kopke’s long tradition of extended wood ageing is clearly expressed here, delivering a Colheita of elegance, precision and depth.
Tasting Notes:
Warm amber-tawny in colour with copper highlights, the nose is layered and inviting. Aromas of dried fig, sultana and orange peel intertwine with notes of toasted almond, caramel and subtle spice. On the palate it is smooth and harmonious, with a silky texture supported by fresh acidity that keeps the wine vibrant. Flavours of candied citrus, walnut and butterscotch unfold gradually, leading to a long, refined and persistent finish with lingering notes of dried fruit and gentle spice.
Serving & Food Pairing:
Serve lightly chilled to enhance aromatic lift and freshness. An excellent partner to almond tart, crème brûlée or mature hard cheeses, though equally rewarding when savoured slowly on its own.
Summary:
Bottled after extended maturation in wood, this 1986 Colheita offers poise, balance and the quiet complexity that defines Kopke’s long-aged Ports — a rewarding bottle for collectors and admirers of finely matured Tawny-style Ports.
