"This wine tastes like star wars." Not sure what that meant, but it was our crew's first reaction. Great wine. Tawny character with so much complexity and a certain amount of electricity. Just wonderful.

Jan 16th, 2016Another great beauty and outstanding wine from Kopke- very complex and power with a wonderful finesse - drinking history as usual with the large collection of Old Tawnies -
The German Family named Kopke came from Hamburg to Lisbon in 1636. Two years later, in 1638, Christiano Kopke established himself in Oporto, as merchant and exporter of Portuguese products, and he started the export of Portuguese wines already produced in the region, as part of his business.

Bottled in 2014, noticeable sediment, cloudy tawny. Best after a week of air in the fridge. Classic brown sugar/citrus/vanilla/bitter almond accord.

Sweet with noticeable spirit influence. Maybe decanting would help. Good not great. I was a bit disappointed!
