Kopke, founded in 1638, is one of Portugal's oldest Port houses. Traditional Douro varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Sousão. Vineyards up to 600 metres altitude on greywacke soils, with granite in some areas.

Hand-picked at optimum ripeness. The grapes are destemmed, crushed and macerated in lagares at a controlled temperature (28–30°C), with constant churning during fermentation, until the right degree of sweetness (baumé) is achieved. Grape brandy is then added to arrest fermentation. LBV (Late Bottled Vintage): made from a single harvest and bottled 4 to 6 years after harvest.

Kopke L.B.V. 2015

Este vino es un Porto Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) de la bodega Kopke, fundada en 1638, una de las casas más antiguas de Oporto. La denominación de origen es Porto, en Portugal. La añada declarada es 2015.

La elaboración utiliza variedades tradicionales del Duero, específicamente Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz y Sousão. La vendimia se realiza manualmente en el momento óptimo. Las uvas se despalillan, estrujan y maceran en lagares a una temperatura controlada de 28-30°C, con batido constante durante la fermentación hasta alcanzar el grado de dulzor adecuado. En ese punto se añade aguardiente de uva para detener el proceso. Este estilo LBV se elabora con uva de una sola cosecha y se embotella entre 4 y 6 años después de la vendimia. Los viñedos se encuentran hasta 600 metros de altitud sobre suelos de grauvaca y granito en algunos parajes.

Se trata de un vino de una sola cosecha con una trayectoria de crianza en barrica definida por la norma LBV antes de su embotellado.

Learn more about Kopke

Kopke is the oldest Port house in the world, and it was founded by two Germans. Nicolau Köpke, a merchant from Hamburg, arrived in Portugal as Consul General of the Hanseatic League and in 1638 set up the business together with his son Cristiano. The date is worth placing: the Douro was not demarcated as a wine region until 1756, more than a century later.

For nearly a century and a half the house bought wine rather than made it. That changed in 1781, when it acquired its first farm in the Douro and moved from merchant to producer. In 1922 it bought Quinta de São Luiz, where all its DOC Douro wines are made today.

Its speciality is Colheita, single-vintage Ports aged for many years in wood before bottling, a category in which the house is the benchmark.
