Dalva Harvest 1995

Dalva Colheita 1995 is a single-vintage port wine that captures the special expression of 1995. This Colheita has matured in oak barrels for longer than the required seven years, adding an extra dimension of complexity.

Visually

The wine presents itself with an elegant golden brown color that has amber hues, characteristic of a well-ripened Colheita.

Fragrance

The nose is full and nuanced, with aromas of dried fruits such as figs, raisins and apricots. There are also notes of walnuts, spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg, as well as subtle oxidative notes reminiscent of caramel and aged wood.

Taste

The taste is harmonious with a silky texture and a well-balanced sweetness. Dried fruits, nuts and a slightly spicy undertone are prominent. A fresh acidity balances the sweetness, and the aftertaste is long and complex with notes of caramel and vanilla.

Serving

Dalva Colheita 1995 should be served slightly chilled (around 12-16°C) and is ideal with desserts with nuts, caramel or dried fruits. It also goes well with blue cheeses or as an end to a good meal.

Uniqueness

As a Colheita from 1995, this wine offers a unique opportunity to experience a vintage-specific expression that reflects both the character of the vintage and Dalva's expertise in barrel aging and winemaking. It is a wine for connoisseurs and for special occasions.
