This house is internationally renowned for their sophisticated and complex \u003cstrong\u003ecolheita wines\u003c\/strong\u003e .

Unlike vintage port, which ages in the bottle, colheita is aged in cask, developing oxidative and nutty aromas over time. This makes the wine a unique snapshot of 1985, a year also known as a strong vintage in the Douro.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Colheita Port (vintage tawny)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYear:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1985\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAgeing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 35–38 years in small oak barrels (depending on bottling year)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 20%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e Deep amber to dark mahogany color with reddish-golden reflections, clearly showing the long aging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003ch3\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e An incredibly complex and refined aroma with notes of walnuts, dried orange peel, figs, dates, toffee, dark caramel, cinnamon, licorice and old wooden barrels.
