Real Companhia Velha, Royal Oporto, Colheita 2013 Friulano graphite and a nice gentleColheita Ports are a very specific style of dated wines which are the result of a rigorous selection of the best grapes from the year inscribed on the label. These wines are submitted to a minimum ageing period of 7 years in selected old oak casks in the silence of our cellars, where they acquire a genuine and distinct bouquet of intense and complex aromas and a fine, velvety palate.
