Producer notes: "These are probably the most appreciated Ports from our House. Colheita Ports are single year Ports of a high quality level which have to be matured in wood for at least seven years. Normally they are bottled just before they leave our cellars, which may happen much later than the 7th year of age. For this reason, our Colheita Ports generally remain in wood for long or even very long periods, and acquire with time the characteristic mahogany colour of the old Tawnies, a fine and complex bouquet, a nutty character and a silky texture. Take a Colheita Port after meal with creamy cheeses like Brie and Camembert from France or Serra from Portugal. Take it also with grilled chestnuts or crème brulé. If you are a smoker, don't miss the opportunity to enjoy a Colheita with a good cigar.
1996: A wet winter was followed by a dry spring and summer. A high rainfall before the beginning of the harvest by the end of September increased the yield. Quality was uneven but some very attractive wines have been produced."
