Barros' Special Edition 102 is a blend of aged, wood-aged Port reserves. The designation “102” refers to this special edition and does not mean that any single wine has been aged in barrels for exactly 102 years. What makes it special is the blending of various aged components.
The special designation “102” makes this bottling distinctive within the Barros range. Unlike a Colheita, the name does not refer to a single vintage. Here, the focus is on the selection and blending of older Tawny reserves, with the cellar master seeking a balance between maturity, intensity, and freshness.
When Port is aged in wood for a very long time, its aromas become richer and more complex. Dried figs, dates, toasted nuts, and candied citrus can blend with coffee, cocoa, and mild spices. A fresh undertone is important to balance that intensity.
This bottling is especially interesting for those who want to discover the art of blending. Unlike a Colheita, it doesn’t tell the story of a single harvest, but rather of the selection and craftsmanship behind its composition. Serve it slightly chilled and give the aroma time to open up. Those familiar with the 101 Blend can compare and contrast these two special editions side by side.
