Storage
The wine should be stored in a cool and dry place, sheltered from light and temperature fluctuations, and the bottle should remain in an upright position. Over time, it is natural that sediment will form at the bottom of a bottle of Port wine. Once opened, it should be drunk within 4 to 6 months.
Preparation and Usage
Serve chilled. Irresistible with a starter of foie gras with aubergine and walnuts. A great choice for an endless array of desserts, such as toffee brownies, chocolate and pistachio pav, or crostini of walnuts with chvre.
Best served at a temperature between 12 and 14C.

Brand
Kopke, the oldest Port house, was founded in 1638 and continues today to use their
unmistakable and unique hand painted bottle. Specialised in Tawny
Ports which are an intrinsically Portuguese affair. Many of the vineyard owning families
would lay down their best wines in large wooden pipes and leave them to gently
mature in cask over many years. Time well spent in barrel...
