From a very classic year, that produced stunning Colheita Ports and mainly aged in the Douro before being transferred to Vila Nova de Gaia, it is very much into the Barão de Vilar style. Caramel, roasted coffee bean, dried fruits and toasted wood, slightly lifting on the nose with good amount of freshness and a very silky texture.  The finish is long and clean.

Mark Squires (Robert parker 2015) 93 points: "The 1982 Colheita Port is a blend of 30% Touriga Franca, 30% Tinta Barroca, 20% Tinta Roriz, 15% Touriga Nacional and 5% Tinto Cão, coming in at 132 grams per liter of residual sugar. It is gorgeous for its rich and diverse medley of flavors supported by fine acidity. The finish lingers wonderfully with the acidity lacing the flavor into the palate. It seems rather viscous as well. This is nicely put together. It won't disappoint."
