Kopke 20 Years Old TAWNY Port 20% vol. 0.75 l online kaufen

Kopke 20 Years Old TAWNY Port 20% comes from the Douro Valley in Portugal and is produced by the long-established port house Kopke, whose history dates back to 1638. Traditional Douro grape varieties are used for this 20-year-old Tawny Port; the grapes are harvested at the optimum stage of ripeness, destemmed and gently processed. During controlled fermentation, the desired natural residual sweetness is preserved by adding wine distillate. Selected wines from various vintages are then aged for varying lengths of time in oak casks before being blended to create the final cuvée. The age statement of 20 years refers to the average age of the wines contained and reflects the pronounced maturity and oak-cask development of this classic Tawny Port.

Thanks to its long ageing in oak barrels, the Kopke 20 Years Old Tawny Port develops a concentrated yet elegant style, in which dried fruit, delicate spices and refined oak notes intertwine harmoniously. Its characteristic orange-gold colour with slightly greenish highlights is indicative of the long oxidative ageing, whilst the velvety, long-lasting finish ensures exceptional balance. With an alcohol content of 20% vol. and a distinct yet well-integrated sweetness, this matured port from Portugal is ideal both as a classic digestif and as a versatile accompaniment to cheese and desserts. The 0.75-litre bottle thus offers a traditional Tawny Port with an average age of 20 years, which particularly showcases the elegant, nutty and spicy character of matured Port wines.

Even on its own after a meal, its velvety, mature character invites you to savour the port slowly and mindfully.
