Description

The Kopke 2006 Colheita Port is a beautifully crafted single-harvest Tawny that reflects Kopke’s unrivalled expertise as the oldest Port house. In the glass, it shows a deep amber-tawny colour with golden highlights, hinting at the slow oxidative ageing that has shaped its character.

The nose is expressive and inviting, layered with aromas of dried apricot, orange peel, caramelised nuts, and warm spice. Hints of fig, honey, vanilla, and toasted oak emerge with time, showcasing the complexity that comes from nearly two decades in seasoned casks.

On the palate, the 2006 Colheita is refined, silky, and perfectly balanced. Rich flavours of dried fruit, toffee, nutmeg, and butterscotch unfold seamlessly, supported by Kopke’s hallmark freshness. A subtle citrus lift keeps the wine lively, while the cask ageing adds depth, smoothness, and a gentle savoury edge.

The finish is long, warming, and elegant, filled with lingering notes of caramel, roasted nuts, and spice. This is a superbly judged Colheita—mature, complex, and ready to enjoy now. Perfect with crème brûlée, pecan tart, hard cheeses, or simply savoured on its own as a luxurious after-dinner glass.

With a fantastic location of the vineyards on the left bank of the River Douro, harvesting according to ancient traditions, coupled with the most modern winemaking technology, makes Kopke ports to the absolute top qualities.
