Kopke 1937 Colheita Port (Port)
- Online Exclusive
- $430
Bottled in 2008, this extraordinary wine is still concentrated. It is also smooth, a velvet texture of richness bordering on opulence. The flavor of wood is there, but more important are the old-time fudge and toffee flavors, rounded with sweet sultanas and edged with acidity.

Kopke NV 40-Year-Old Tawny Port (Port)
- $115
A wonderful blending of sweet, caramel flavors and old wood seeps into what is still a surprisingly fresh wine. It has lovely, old, gold acidity just lightly burnished with some spirit. Concentrated, yes, but still finely poised, and much less medicinal than previous examples of Kopke’s 40-year old.

Kopke 1957 Colheita Port (Port)
- Online Exclusive
- $199
Kopke has a treasure house of old Colheita tawnys, and this rich, wood-spiced wine is a classic example. The vanilla and caramel from long wood aging are balanced superbly with acidity and dried fruits. It is nowhere near too concentrated, but it is certainly rich, its flavors long-lasting and intense.

Kopke NV 20-year old tawny Port (Port)
- $56
Although part of Barros, Kopke still operates relatively independently, and obviously can draw on good stocks of aged tawnys. This wine certainly tastes all of 20 years, with its richness and dryness finely in balance, and with lemon jelly and intense ripe fruits shining through.

Kopke NV 20-Years-Old Tawny Port (Port)
A rich, smooth, sweet wine, full of caramel and almonds, with just a hint of acidity. The spirit edge gives the right bite in this mature, rounded, delicious tawny.

Kopke 2004 Quinta São Luiz Vintage Port (Port)
- $58
A great mouthful of sweet fruit, flavors of ripe figs and tannins are almost lost in this delicious wine. This is hardly a classic, long-term vintage, but it’s almost ready to be a hugely enjoyable wine. For lovers of rich, almost sweet Zinfandel, go back to the original model with this wine.

Kopke 2007 Vintage Port (Port)
- Online Exclusive
- $60
Dry, firm, structured, its juiciness as much acidity as fruit. The wine is dense, still fresh, but definitely for the long haul.

Kopke 2005 Reserva Red (Douro)
- $24
An attractive, structured, balanced wine, showing floral aromas, deliciously rounded ripe fruit, held in check by fresh blackberry flavor. The richness is here, but it is subtle, giving a wine that is powerful but food friendly.
