Burly and powerful, this opened up over several days, proving that it had some elegance, too. In most ways, for a young Colheita this is a big overachiever, more solid than one might expect and with more power. (Vintage 2003 was a very big and warm Douro vintage.) The spirits do announce their presence every now and then, my only quibble. Over some days (and when drunk at the proper cooler temperatures), it was fine, balanced by the concentration and richness here. Overall, this is pretty impressive in depth and power for what amounts to a 13-year-old tawny. With that long cork, you can lay it down a bit, too. You certainly don't have to, but this might acquire a bit more "suave" over the course of a decade or so.
