A fresh and vivid single harvest colheita with orange peel, apple peel, Butter Brickle and hints of caramel. Medium body. Refined and beautiful. Sweet crunchy finish. Weightless yet very sweet. Ethereal. Drink now.
The 1974 Single Harvest Tawny Port (that's called a "Colheita" traditionally, but some producers have decided to translate) is a field blend bottled in May 2022 with a bar-top cork and 132 grams of residual sugar. A terrific Colheita, this dribbles sweet fruit and sugar over the finish while seeming bright and elevated. It is so fresh and balanced, that it is just terrific. Then, it adds all the typical flavors, the caramels and chocolates. This is great. Drink 2022-2060.
Very pale amber with a pale greenish rim. Light nose with hints of dried fruits and real delicacy. No exaggerated concentration. Real freshness – quite marked acidity in fact. Super-clean and with a texture that suggests this tawny port is caressing rather than assaulting the palate. Quite delicious. Long. I wonder when this was released? I assume quite recently (see my drink dates). Drink 2020-2032
In the series of great single harvest Colheita Ports, this is at a perfect age. There is a fine treacle and spice character to the wine along with a touch of orange zest freshness. Drink this great Port now.
