Quinta do Vale Meão Colheita 1999
Region: Porto
Producer: Quinta do Vale Meão
Why we chose this wine
As descendants of the renowned Ferreira Port family, the Olazabals need no lessons in Port production—a fact they emphatically demonstrate with the release of this 1999 Colheita.
While most producers release their Colheitas after about ten years of aging, this Vale Meão was given a full 25 years to develop in the barrel.
This imparts great complexity to the wine.
