NV Kopke 40 Year Old Tawny Port
Posted: Sun Nov 26, 2017 12:55 pm
Bottled 2013 (Tasted November 2015)
Complex and a little tight scent. A little liquor, orange juice, caramel, brown sugar, a touch of bitter walnuts, coffee, spices and a little smoke. Fresh and elegant taste with sour orange in spite of the 40 years.
Very well-balanced. One of my favorite wines. Very rich and soft but also with a little tightness and backbone. Maybe a little short in the end?
I have given the top point 20, as I find it hard to see you can do better. Clear mahogany color.
20/20
