Description
The Colheita Port made by Quinta de La Rosa is a high-end label, which is produced only in the best vintages, when the vineyards are able to offer grapes of excellent quality, perfectly ripe, healthy and with intense and elegant aromas. It is a fortified wine that combines the freshness and fragrance of a young Vintage Port with the complexity and expressive depth of the great Tawny Ports aged for a long time in oak barrels. Realized with traditional port varieties, such as Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Sousão, and Tinta Roriz, it is fermented slightly longer to guarantee a dry finish.
Tasting Notes :
In the glass it has a very intense amber dark red color. The olfactory picture is rich and multifaceted, with aromas of small red berries, notes of dark chocolate, bitter cocoa, hints of vanilla, licorice and toasted nuances of roasting. The aromas are broad and deep and give a complex, rich sip with persuasive tannins. The finish is of considerable flavor length.
