Poças Colheita 2005

The Colheita is a high-quality Port issued from a single harvest, aged in oak casks for at least seven years. During maturation in wood, the young, fresh and fruity aromas will turn into an elegant and complex bouquet combined with a silky texture and a long-lasting finish.

Grape Varieties: Field blend. Vineyards aged 40-60 years.

Tasting Note: COLOUR: Dark amber. AROMA: Notes of spice. PALATE: Compelling and fresh, with hints of dried fruit and acacia, and a long and persistent finish.

Gastronomy: Excellent digestive wine, splendid with sweets such as crème bruleé, apple pie, pastel de nata (portuguese custard tart), milk chocolate, french toast, christmas pudding. Ready to drink when bottled it should be served at 18°C/64°F or slightly chilled.

Vinification: Temperature controlled fermentation, stopped by grape brandy addition.

Ageing: Fines in oak casks for a period no less than 7 years. During maturation the wine mellows by oxidization similarly to Old Port Wines, and presents characteristics that are unique of the harvest year

Winemaker: Jorge Manuel Pintão, André Pimentel Barbosa.
