1966 Kopke, "Colheita" Tawny Port

A Rare Vertical of Kopke Colheita Ports — Bottled to Order

We’re thrilled to unveil a remarkable vertical of perfectly cellared Tawny Colheita Ports from the legendary House of Kopke, the oldest Port producer in the Douro Valley. With unmatched depth in vintage-dated Tawny stocks, Kopke reigns supreme in the Colheita category.

This collection is a masterclass in aged Port: decades of slow, oxidative aging in oak have transformed these wines into something magical. The sweetness is subtle, the structure refined, and the kaleidoscope of fruits, nuts, spices, and florals feels almost surreal. But it’s all just grapes... and time.

Even better? These bottles don’t demand urgency. Once opened, they stay fresh for months, making Colheita one of the most cellar-worthy and durable fortified wines in the world. Enjoy their layered complexity this fall—or lay them down for another decade or two.

Provenance is everything, and select vintages—1966, 1978, 1987, and 2011—will be bottled to order at the winery. It’s a rare, personalized touch for serious collectors, and no other fine wine category offers this kind of access.

Colheita isn’t about vintage character—it’s about evolution. These wines have matured in cask for decades, with the harvest’s signature fading into a tapestry of secondary and tertiary aromas. The older the vintage, the deeper the story.

Tasting Note:

"An intense brown color, with a brick-colored rim that shows its longevity. On the nose, it shows appealing aromas of dried fruit and marked notes of smoke. Silky and delicate on the palate, with remarkable structure and elegance. The flavors of plum, dried fig and vanilla are well-balanced, giving the wine a unique and distinct style. A singularly persistent finish."
