Palmer Port, 2006

Colheita Port, Douro
75cl Bottle
Exclusive to Vintage Wine and Port

Description and Reviews:
A 50cl bottle of 2006 vintage Colheita Port Wine from Palmer Port.
This 2006 Port Wine has been stored in seasoned oak casks since the 2006 harvest until it was bottled in 2019.

Tasting Notes:
The 2006 Port from Palmer has rich tawny hue which can develop depth with age.
A very aromatic nose and complex, there are notes of dried fruits such as figs, raisins, and apricots, along with toasted nuts, caramel, and a hint of warm spices. This port is well-balanced, and offers flavours of dried fruits, honey, toffee, and subtle vanilla. The oak aging contributes a gentle spiciness and an elegant complexity. It has a lingering finish that showcases the wine's maturity and complexity, leaving an impression of dried fruit and spice.

Serve slightly chilled, around 12-16°C (54-61°F) and use a Port glass or a small wine glass to enhance the aromas and tasting experience. Excellent with dark chocolate or cheeses like Stilton, Roquefort, or mature cheddar.

Colheita Port should be stored in a cool and dry place, sheltered from light and temperature fluctuations, and the bottle should remain in an upright position. 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.
