Kopke Tasting Packs. Opening Offer for our Autumn series of wine tasting events. First 50 packs are just £69.97. After the first 50 are sold we will increase the cost to £79.95.
A unique opportunity to taste a collection of award-winning wines from the world's oldest port house in the company of the head wine maker Carlos Alves and Joao Belo.
Vintage Wine and Port has been working for many years to develop the Kopke brand in the UK as they have the largest collection of premium Colheita Port in the world. Kopke Ports have won many awards and are lauded by Port connoisseurs everywhere. When we approached them during lockdown to take part in our series of online tasting events, they said that they would go away and "put special something together". They have not let us down producing a tasting pack of award winning Ports in a beautiful presentation box.
Each Pack contains 50ml tubes of

Prior to the event we will send you joining details and links. As with previous events we will broadcast on YouTube and save the event for you to join later if you do not want to take part in the evening.

We did this one here in the US and it was very well done and - as one can imagine based on the list of Ports - very tasty. I highly recommend.
