Kopke Colheita 2011 Tawny

Brick in colour, this Colheita shows aromas of caramelized fruit, dried fruit and spice from its ageing in barrel. On the palate it is a balanced wine, with a perfect match between acidity and sweetness. Flavours of dried fruit, coffee and delicate notes of spice render the wine velvety and intense.

Served chilled, it reveals all its finesse and sophistication, especially when drunk with desserts made with caramel, dried fruit and spice, 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, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinta Barroca.
