TASTING NOTE: From its vineyard in the hot Torto Valley, Ramos-Pinto has produced a rich, densely sweet, lightly burnt wine. It’s deliciously attractive, very smooth and flavored with perfumed dried apricots. Score - 91. (Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast, Aug. 1 2006)

Roy Hersh, one of the leading Port experts in the USA, notes on his website that: "Kopke holds a very special place in the history of the Port trade. It was founded in 1638, three decades before any other Port firms were established … Kopke is one of my ultimate favorites when it comes to Colheita producers and fortunately I reside in close proximity to the USA's West Coast importer, so I have enjoyed many of them over the years."

Unlike most Port producers, who export the lion's share of their product to overseas markets, Kopke's Ports are largely consumed within Portugal and the rest of Europe. For this reason, this incredible selection of Ports is extremely rare in our market. With centuries of tradition under their belt, Kopke offers some of the most authentic expressions of Colheita Ports today, making this collection perfect for the connoisseur or those celebrating birthdays or anniversaries.
