    *** 90 Points, Roy Hersh - For the Love of Port ***

    The 1992 Quevedo Colheita is an outstanding quality and value effort from this family-run estate. Oscar and Claudia Quevedo have produced a light brown port with hints of amber. On the palate there are nuts and a lovely light molasses note with coffe and spices The finish is long and lingering as befits a quality port such as this. Outstanding!

    Reviews:
    "This was a cask sample which Oscar Quevedo had sent to me by way of Vinologia and how often do you get to try 16 year old bottled cask samples of any wine? I can't begin to describe the color as we sat beneath the bridge on the Porto side, sipping and talking during the wee hours our first night in country (Andy/ Stewart/Roy). Nutty with a mahogany essence and a lovely light molasses note. Smooth, smoky and rich. Slightly hot and that was the only drawback, but obviously we did not get to decant this and maybe a pop and pour scenario hurt this slightly. I am looking forward to trying this again someday. Good length on the finish and overall, it was a nice young Colheita. 90 points. Roy Hersh, September 2008

    Colheita Port Storage and Serving Advice:
    Colheita Port should be stored in a cool and dry place, sheltered from light and temperature fluctuations, and the bottle should remain in an upright position. If stored correctly, Colheita Ports will keep for decades in the bottle. Over time, it is natural that a little sediment will form at the bottom of a bottle of colheita Port wine. Once opened colheita Port should be stored in a fridge and should be consumed within 3 months. Colheita Ports do not require decanting and are best served at a temperature between 14 and 16°C.

    ***94 Points- Robert Parkers- Wine Advocate***
    The 1992 Colheita Tawny Port is a field blend made up of roughly 35% Touriga Franca, 20% Tinta Roriz, 15% Touriga Nacional, 10% Tinta Barroca and others, aged for 24 years in used oak. This, the third release of this 1992, was bottled in 2018 with a long cork and 101 grams of residual sugar. Juicy and lively, this dribbles the sugar over the palate at first taste, but it quickly dries out and becomes more about the complexity, the bitter chocolate. The finish is long, powerful and penetrating. Some may prefer more sex appeal, but I liked this a lot. There will be another few releases of this as it gets older but with increasingly long times between releases.
