If there's one thing we love at Oddbins it's a Vintage Port that is old enough to order its own Vintage Port. In fact, this port is so wonderfully mature that the grapes were being picked when current winemaker, Carlos Alves, was the ripe old age of five. With a rich, full palate, expressing flavours of dried figs, craisins and hazelnuts, harmonising with the presence of sweet spice, it is the one thing we all need this winter, a wine to make us feel young again!
Kopke, arguably the oldest Port house in the Douro, was founded in 1638 and continues today to use their unmistakable and unique hand painted bottle. Kopke has always specialised in Tawny Ports, which are an intrinsically Portuguese affair. Hand-harvest at their best moment, the grapes are destemmed, crushed and vinified in a careful maceration with extraction of colour, tannins and aromas of the pellicles, complemented by permanent pumping-over during fermentation. This process takes place in vats at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until reaching the desired Baumé. At this phase grape brandy is added to make a fortified wine. Bottled in 1989 and matured in bottle until the present day. Bright red colour with golden halo. Rich and aromatic nose of dried figs, hazelnuts and prunes, harmoniously balanced by the presence of spices. Intense, soft and delicious flavours of dried fruits in the mouth, defined by a fresh touch of confit orange. Good structure, beautifully balanced and with a notable acidity. Pleasant and lasting finish.
