1997 Kopke

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Tasted at the Confraria dinner. Intense, perfumed nose. Dense texture and dense in flavour. Plenty of fruit with tannins hiding behind the fruit, appearing late on the palate. The tannins give structure. Burly, with good life ahead of it. 91/100. 22-Jun-17. Decanted 12 hours.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
