1957 Kopke Colheita (bottled 2015)
Bottled 2015. Brown in colour with red hues; 50% opaque. Served very cold this had a plastic edge to the nose but was rich and concentrated on the palate with significant levels of tannins drying the cheeks. Big in flavour and with a powerful apple acidity that balances the honey sweetness, this is a well structured port. The finish is cheek-tingling and full of chewy honey. Delicious. 94/100. Tasted 05-Mar-15.
