    Tasting Notes
    Deep amber in colour, with rich aromas of dried fruits, nuts, caramel, and subtle spices, often with a touch of vanilla and honey. On the palate it is smooth and well-rounded, with flavours of figs, raisins, nuts, toffee, and a hint of citrus zest. The oak aging imparts a mellow, velvety texture. It finishes with a long and elegant aftertaste, with a balanced sweetness and a hint of spice.

    Serving & Food Pairing:
    Colheita Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they will work wonders if pairing with treacle tart, crème brulee or nut based desserts, like hazelnut praline. Once opened colheita Port should be stored in a fridge and should be consumed within 3 months.

    Reviews

    Wine Spectator gave this port wine a higher score of 92 points, describing it as a wine with spicy notes and a smooth, balanced character. The wood aging is present but doesn't overpower the fruit flavors, which include chocolate and raisins.
