Elevage
Harvested by hand at their optimum point, the grapes are de-stemmed, crushed and vinified according to a process that is based on careful maceration with the extraction of color, tannins and aromas from the skins, complemented by permanent pumping over during fermentation. This takes place in mills, at a controlled temperature between 28-30ºC, until the desired Baumé degree is reached. At this stage, wine brandy (benefit) is added, creating a fortified wine. High quality wine, coming from a single harvest. It ages in wood for variable periods of time, never less than 7 years, and is subsequently bottled according to market requests.
Description
The oldest Port house
Even before the demarcation of the Douro region, Kopke already existed. Founded in 1638, the oldest Port house has built an impeccable reputation based on high quality principles. A leader in the production of Tawny Colheita Port, including whites, Kopke has an enviable portfolio of special category Ports and also produces top-of-the-range DOC Douro wines.
"History and exclusivity are two of the words that best describe Kopke, a brand synonymous with prestige."
Tasting
Bright brown color with red hues. The aromas of dried fruit are dominant on the nose, yet fresh notes of red fruit (cherry) come delicately to the fore. Elegant and complex on the palate, laden with rich flavors well integrated with the exuberance of spice. Unctuous, delicious and persistent finish.
Served chilled, it reveals all its finesse and sophistication, especially when drunk with desserts made with caramel, dried fruit and spice, such as caramel fondant with apple and ginger jelly, tarte tatin, crème brulée and medium strength cheeses. Best served at a temperature between 12 and 14°C.
