Kopke is widely recognized as the oldest Port house still in operation. Its reputation rests above all on Colheita, a single-harvest Tawny Port that ages in seasoned oak casks, known as pipas, for at least seven years and often for many decades before bottling. Kopke holds one of the deepest reserves of old Colheitas in the Douro, which is why vintages from the 1970s can still be released today, freshly bottled after decades in wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1975 Colheita is blended from the Douro’s classic indigenous grapes, Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, grown on steep, terraced schist slopes. It comes from a lighter vintage, and nearly half a century of slow evolution in cask has turned it into a soft amber wine defined by finesse rather than power. Because Colheitas age in wood rather than in bottle, it arrives ready to drink with little sediment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA graceful, elegant old Tawny from the oldest Port house in existence.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAromas of dried dates, toasted almond, and caramelized orange peel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA delicate, refined palate with subtle baking spice and a gentle, lingering sweetness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLighter in style than many old Colheitas, which makes it especially easy to enjoy.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful birth-year or anniversary gift for anyone celebrating 1975.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe slightly cool, between 56 and 60°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo decanting is needed.
