Description

A bottle of Niepoort 1968 Colheita Port bottled in 1979.

Colheita is the Portuguese word for ‘harvest’ and signifies a vintage-dated tawny. The wine must be from a single year and aged for a minimum of seven years in wood before bottling. In practice, many are aged for considerably longer.

Please note there is no size stated on the label but we estimate this lot is a 75cl bottle.

Condition

Please see images for fill level and label condition. Note general wear.

The Whisky.Auction team has inspected this lot and found it to be suitable for sale. However, please note the absence of a condition statement does not imply that this lot is in perfect condition or free from wear and tear, imperfections or the effects of ageing. We cannot guarantee that the contents of this bottle will be free from the effects of age, cork taint, oxidation or other faults. Older bottles often contain sediment. Wines are more fragile than spirits and older wines may be listed, at our discretion, for their historical interest rather than their drinkability. We can in no way guarantee that they are still within their plateau of maturity or to the buyer’s taste.

This bottle does not appear to be leaking. While we take every care to pack bottles securely we cannot guarantee that old corks and closures will not leak in transit.
