Colheita Port

A colheita port is an aged tawny port using grapes from a single vintage. By law, colheitas are to mature in wooden casks for at least seven years, although in practice ageing tends to be for up to 50 years.

Bottling only occurs when the producer decides the port is ready to drink. Consumers should enjoy in the following year or so. The label should carry both the vintage and the bottling date.
