Winemaking Information
Colheita (vintage in Portuguese) is a single vintage Tawny port aged for at least seven years and the vintage year on the bottle instead of a category of age (10, 20, etc...) Colheita Port should not be confused with Vintage Port: those will spend only about 18 months in barrels after harvest and will continue to mature in bottle, but a Colheita may have spent 20 or more years in wooden barrels before being bottled and sold.
