Messias, 2007

Colheita Port, Douro

Description and Reviews:
Messias, as a respected producer, typically crafts Colheita Ports that showcase the unique characteristics of the vintage year. The 2007 Colheita from Messias is likely to be appreciated for its maturity, complexity, and ability to pair well with desserts or as a standalone digestif.

Tasting notes:
Tawny with amber reflections, indicating extensive oak ageing. Aromas of dried fruits such as figs, dates, and apricots, with hints of nuts (walnuts, almonds) and cinnamon and nutmeg spice. Smooth and velvety texture, with flavours reminiscent of dried fruits and nuts. The sweetness and acidity are well-balanced, with a lingering caramel and toffee finish.

Serving & Food Pairing
Colheita Ports are ready-to drink and do not require decanting. Best enjoyed slightly chilled at 12-13ºC they will work wonders if pairing with treacle tart, crème brulee or nut based desserts, like hazelnut praline. Once opened colheita Port should be stored in a fridge and should be consumed within 3
