Tasting Note

Concentrated and with a deep dark colour, fresh and exuberant on the nose with layered notes of black fruit, this vintage stands out for its structure and balance, whilst delivering firm tannins, true to the style of Kopke's Vintage Single Quinta. Its crispy acidity combined with the layered flavours of fruit fresh make this wine engaging, and the intense finish anticipates great ageing potential.

Product Notes

Kopke Quinta Sao Luiz Vintage Port is an inimitable offering from Portugal's oldest port house, Kopke. This wine intoxicates with an exquisite combination of ripe plum and fig aromas, underpinned by intriguing notes of chocolate and balsamic. On the palate, it's a symphony of rich dark fruit flavours, interwoven with spicy undertones and a distinct mineral edge. A full-bodied, complex vintage that beautifully marries intensity and elegance. Finishing persistently, its harmonious balance of tannin, acidity, and sugar ensures that this port continues to mature gracefully in the bottle over a significant period. A true collector's gem.
