Description and Reviews:
A very rare 4.5 Litre Bottle of 1974 Graham Single Harvest Colheita Port.

The 1974 Single Harvest Tawny Port is made from the very finest wines from the Graham’s vineyards. Graham's holds one of the most extensive reserves of very old cask aged Port of any producer. They include a collection of rare Single Harvest Ports. These are Ports from a single year which age to full maturity in seasoned oak casks and display the year of harvest on the label.

VWP Tasting note:
The 1974 rare Single Harvest Tawny Port has been matured for over four decades in seasoned oak casks in the Graham's lodges in Oporto. It has a seductive tawny colour which fades to a broad amber rim with discreet olive highlights. The attractive nose is fine and delicate, with notes of vanilla, walnut and marzipan, hints of oak, black pepper and cinnamon. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, well balanced with a smooth texture and mellow spicy flavours. The finish is very long, with a crisp acidity. This exceptional Aged Tawny Port is ready to drink now. Score 95/100 TC VWP, Apr 21 from sample served at 14C.

If stored correctly, Colheita Ports will keep for decades in the bottle. Over time, it is natural that a little sediment will form at the bottom of a bottle of colheita Port wine. Once opened colheita Port should be stored in a fridge and should be consumed within 3 months. Colheita Ports do not require decanting and are best served at a temperature between 14 and 16°C.
