A Touriga Nacional-based blend of traditional Douro red varieties, grown on schist-sandstone soils at 600 meters of elevation • Tawny port is a style marked by the oxidative characteristics of long aging in oak barrels • Casks of different years are then blended to achieve the desired age character – in Kopke’s case, the age on the label is the average age of all the wines in the blend • Wines labeled with average age of the blend (50 year) are commonly referred to as “Statement of Age” Tawny.

"Aged to the extreme, with superb intensity and layers of complexity, showing dates, caramel and persimmons as well as hints of raisins, peppery spices, licorice, milk chocolate and old books. Full-bodied and tangy yet sleek and concentrated on the palate, with an intense sweet finish that lingers more than a minute. Bottled in 2023. Drink now."
