Colheita Porto 2007

Produced in the Douro Valley, Portugal, a renowned region for Port wine production with a long tradition of fortified wine craftsmanship.

Colheita Port is made from a blend of traditional Douro grape varieties, typically including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca, and Tinto Cão.

Messias Colheita Port is a single-vintage tawny Port aged in oak casks for a minimum of seven years. The wine undergoes fortification by adding grape spirit to halt fermentation, preserving natural sugars and enhancing alcohol content. The extended aging in wood allows gradual oxidation and concentration of flavors, resulting in complexity and smoothness.
