2. KOPKE, FINE WHITE PORT, DOURO, PORTUGAL NV
Winemaker's Tasting Notes
A vivid orangey-brown colour. On the nose, it reveals aromas of ripe and honeyed fruit combined with fragrant notes of vanilla. A smooth and round palate, full of rich and enveloping flavours.
95 Points - Decanter
An elegant style that light-footedly dances across the tongue. Subtle layers of flavour play across the senses. Much more nuanced than many of its peers; a very interesting contrast. The fruit expression is well defined and joins caramel, toffee and white chocolate notes for a poised mouthful. Delicious! (Gold)
3. HERDADE DO MOUCHÃO, MOUCHÃO TINTO, ALENTEJO, PORTUGAL, 2015
Winemaker's Tasting Notes
The Estate’s flagship wine was first bottled in 1949. Sourced predominantly from the Estate’s best Alicante Bouschet grapes from the Carapetos, Ponte das Canas and Dourada vineyards, with up 15% of other local varieties – mainly Trincadeira – grown on the Estate. The latter provides an important aromatic component as Alicante Bouschet’s primary aromas are naturally shy.
95 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2015 Tinto, the regular estate bottling, is a 76/24 blend of Alicante Bouschet and Trincadeira. It was aged for 36 months in used 5,000-liter tonels of varying ages and comes in at 14% alcohol. It was then held back another 24 months. This shows the difference between a nice overachieving effort in 2014 and a great vintage. This adds extra concentration, extra focus and extra power, albeit in a controlled fashion. You can drink it now, but this will be better in a few years. It will last for a couple of decades after that. Best after 2022.
