2011 Kopke

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Some red in the deep purple all the 2011 ports show. Modest nose, dominated by sweet fruit. Hesitant entry, with restrained fruit and powerful tannins dominating the structure, perhaps a little dry on the mid-palate. Dry grainy tannins show on the long finish. 87-89. Snapshot tasting on 24 April 2013.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
