NV Kopke 10 year old white port
Posted: Mon Sep 11, 2017 1:19 am
Bottled 2016. Decanted 1.5 hrs which is minimum. It improved for the following hour. Tasting note based on bottle being open 2.5 hrs.
Transparent amber colour. Appealing aroma of peaches, wood and nuts. Touch of alcohol first 1.5 hrs, thereafter it disappeared. Medium to full body. Quite powerful to be a white port, and that combined with being elegant is promising. Mouth filling and “a big" white port. Well-structured port which had a nice balance acidity/sweetness. Medium length aftertaste. 91 pts.
