DESCRIPTION
Kopke has been shipping Port since 1638, which makes it the oldest Port house. Its tawny ports come from the Douro Valley in northern Portugal.
This 20 Year Old is a blend led by Touriga Nacional, with other traditional Douro red grapes, grown on schist and sandstone soils at about 600 meters. Tawny port spends many years in oak casks, where slow contact with air turns the wine from purple to amber and brings out nutty, dried fruit flavors. Wines from casks of different years are then blended, and the 20 on the label is the average age of the wines in the blend. Expect an amber color, with dried apricot, fig, toasted nuts, caramel and spice, a smooth, mellow texture and a long finish. Sweet, but fresh enough to want a second glass.
Serve slightly cool, at 55 to 60°F, in a small wine glass. Try it with crème brûlée, pecan or almond tart, salted nuts, or aged cheeses like Parmigiano and blue cheese. Once open, it keeps well for several weeks.
Bottle size: 375ml
