Kopke Colheita 2010 Tawny

Brick colour with amber rim. Elegant and intense on the nose, with aromas of nuts (walnut and almond), notes of spice, vanilla, lemon grass and hints of mint. On the palate it reveals excellent balance between sweetness and acidity, with notes of honey and spice, light notes of smoke and hints of ripe fruit. A balanced, long and intense Colheita.

Served chilled, it reveals all its finesse and sophistication, especially when drunk with desserts made with caramel, dried fruit and spices, such as caramel fondant with apple and ginger jelly, tarte tatin, crème brulée and medium-strength cheeses.

• Grapes: Douro's traditional grape varieties - Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Tinta Barroca.
