Axel Probst: One of the big surprises of the tasting, since Kopke is known for colheitas rather than for big Vintage Ports. It was one of the darkest, with an opaque, dark red color. Full, strong nose, with slightly overripe fruit, coffee, and cherries. Surprisingly little developed; one would easily have guessed this Port to be 25 years younger. Chocolate and some herbs on the fresh palate, and a mediumlong finish. Now to 2050.
