Note di degustazione
The 2003 Colheita Tawny Port is a typical field blend of grapes like Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca and Tinto Cão bottled in May 2019 with 124 grams of sugar, 21% alcohol and a long cork. These are often bottled on demand. This has been seen before, but this is a new bottling. In this very warm year, this has surprising density, richness of flavors and general concentration for a somewhat young Tawny (although it is becoming older, obviously, as time marches on). There's less surprising power and a touch of herbs on the finish. It's intense and lush, finishing with a bang. This is more intense than the 2005, its sibling this issue, but perhaps not quite as well balanced, as fresh or as focused.

The 2003 Colheita offers a medium ruby color as well as impressive notes of caramelized cherries, figs, orange blossom, and coffee. It’s rich, full-bodied, impeccably balanced, and a classic Colheita that will keep for decades. This cuvée is 40% Touriga Nacional and the balance 20% each of Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, and Tinto Cão.
