2005 Kopke White Colheita

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

A gentle ginger-orange colour, 10% opaque. Floral icing sugar and orange water on the nose. Slightly thickened floral perfume and gentle orange with a hint of ginger on the palate. Smooth, medium bodied and nicely mouth-filling - elegant lemon marmalade. Fresh grated root ginger on the aftertaste with hints of tannins and a long sticky ginger jam finish. Served blind. 88/100. Drunk 17-May-22.

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

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
