93 Mark Squires - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate

"This seems like a night-and-day difference with the 1975 Kopke Colheita reviewed above. This is sweet, with little austerity. It has a gentle, burnished demeanor and a crisp finish that becomes rather powerful, belying the initial, restrained opening. Complex, caressing and ultimately intense, it is a nice if sometimes understated combination overall."

91 Roy Hersh - For the Love of Port

"Bottled in 2004. It feels like the first time and I know this is one Kopke that I've never had until now. Leave it to me to forget to note the color. ? Hopefully, I'll get to taste this again someday. On the heels of the Krohn from 1960, this initially comes off seemingly simple and flabby. It took several sips for my palate to adjust to the gentler acidity. In its own right, this is a fine Colheita and had the stuffing and the requisite structure indeed. Framed by light viscosity and soft but crisp acidity, this Kopke delivers concentrated sweet and tangy flavors of apricot preserves, white sultanas, toasted almond, brown sugar and grapefruit pith. The bittersweet nature of this Port provides the palate with complexity and refinement, texturally soft and a Colheita with great finesse. It finishes long and with more nuttiness than fruit on the aftertaste. I have experienced very few Ports of any kind from this rare vintage. "
