Description and Reviews:
Kopke has announced the launch of its 2016 Classic Vintage Port, a challenging year that ended up producing exceptional wines. In keeping with the brand’s identity and the profile established throughout its history, Kopke, is launching a Vintage Port loaded with character and enormous ageing potential, translating secure values.

It was a particularly challenging year. We really had to make use of our profound knowledge of the grapes and vines, as each variety and each plot of vineyard developed at a different pace. Being patient and waiting for the right time was worth it, as demonstrated by the exceptional results we achieved with this wine, explained Carlos Alves, Port winemaker at Sogevinus.

Kopke Vintage Port 2016 is firm, intense, crunchy, unctuous and fresh. It’s multi-layered in flavours, firm tannins and has an excellent balance between sweetness and acidity.


Tasting notes by the winemaker Carlos Alves
A deep black colour. An intense and complex nose, laden with very ripe black fruit – plums, blackberries and cherries. Notes of cocoa, black pepper and a soft hint of violet. Unctuous and vigorous, it has several layers of flavours, firm tannins and excellent balance between sweetness and acidity. A long, deep and fresh finish.
