FAQ's For Kopke Colheita Port 1974

How is it made?
  1. Grapes are hand‑picked at optimum ripeness.
  2. They are destemmed, crushed and fermented in temperature‑controlled vats.
  3. Fermentation is halted with grape brandy to preserve natural sweetness.
  4. The wine is aged in seasoned oak casks for decades, allowing slow oxidation and concentration.
  5. It is bottled only when the winemaker judges the vintage ready, preserving the integrity of the harvest year.
How should it be served?

Lightly chilled, ideally between 12–14°C, in a small Port or tulip‑shaped glass.

Does it need decanting?

Yes. Long‑aged Colheitas often develop natural sediment and benefit from gentle decanting.

Why buy this Port wine?

Because it captures a single moment in time - 1974 - it means remembering a remarkable event like the Portuguese Revolution of 25 April 1974. Preserved and perfected through decades of cask ageing. Ideal for collectors.
