{"product_id":"2016-kopke-colheita-tawny-porto","title":"2016 Kopke, Colheita Tawny Porto - 750ml Format","description":"\u003cp\u003eFounded in 1638 by Nicolau Kopke, C.N. 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. The house’s young Colheitas show the same care and precision as its rarest old releases, at a far more accessible price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2016 Colheita comes from an excellent modern Douro harvest, blended from Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca grown on terraced schist. After at least seven years in seasoned oak casks, it shows the first stage of Tawny development: the color is shifting from ruby toward tawny, and fresh fruit is beginning to meet the nutty, spicy notes of wood aging. It is a lively, youthful Colheita in a full 750mL bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA young single-vintage Tawny from a standout 21st-century Douro harvest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFresh plum and dried cranberry on the nose, with cocoa powder and gentle wood spice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBright and generous on the palate, with fruit still leading the way.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA full-size bottle that stays fresh for weeks after opening, so it can be enjoyed slowly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAn excellent value way to explore Kopke’s Colheita program.\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.
