Description

Discover the Kopke Colheita 1967, a rare single-harvest tawny port hailing from Portugal's storied Douro Valley. Crafted by Kopke, the pioneering port house dating back to 1638 and founded by Nicolau Köpke, this expression captures a legacy of excellence in every bottle. The 1967 vintage stands as a tribute to groundbreaking moments in history, including Dr. Christiaan Barnard's pioneering first human-to-human heart transplant in South Africa.

Pour a glass and admire its deep amber glow accented by subtle greenish hues. The bouquet unfolds with prominent dried fruit aromas, highlighted by hazelnut nuances that draw you in. On the palate, it reveals a commanding structure, weaving caramel and chocolate flavors into a lingering, exceptional finish that keeps you savoring each sip.

Esteemed critics have recognized its brilliance: Wine Enthusiast awards it 95 points, while Robert Parker's Wine Advocate matches that score with 95 points. At 20% ABV in a classic 750 ml bottle, this fortified Portuguese port delivers intensity and balance for those special occasions.

Elevate your desserts with this versatile companion. It shines alongside caramel-infused treats, dried fruit pastries, and spiced confections—imagine it with caramel fondant paired with apple and ginger jelly, a warm tarte Tatin, creamy crème brûlée, or even soft mild cheeses. For a bright twist, pair it with tangerine parfait to contrast its richness.

Owning a piece of Douro Valley history, the Kopke Colheita 1967 invites collectors and enthusiasts alike to experience a port that bridges decades of tradition and innovation. Whether marking a milestone or simply indulging in timeless quality, this bottle promises memorable moments.
