1950 is a year that holds personal significance for many people. In the case of this Barros Colheita, it is also the actual vintage year of the grapes. This sets it apart from a Tawny with an age designation, which is a blend of grapes from different years.
A wine from 1950 connects today’s taster with a harvest from the mid-twentieth century. The grapes were harvested in that single year, after which the Port was allowed to age in wood. The bottling date is therefore just as interesting as the vintage year: together, they reveal how much time the wine has spent in the cellar.
The wine developed its character while aging in wooden barrels. This process brings out the refined, mature notes that lovers of old Colheita seek: dried fruits, walnuts, caramel, and a hint of candied citrus. A nice freshness balances the rich flavor and keeps the finish lively.
What makes a Colheita special is that it preserves the story of a single vintage, even after the wine has aged in wood for years. You can see exactly how long that was from the bottling information. This 1950 vintage is therefore not only a wonderful gift for a special anniversary, but also an interesting bottle for anyone who wants to compare different historic vintages.
