Kopke is the oldest port shipper in the Douro Valley, established in 1638 by Christoff Kopke a German merchant who began exporting wine from the Douro region to northern Europe before the port wine trade had been formally codified. The house passed through multiple ownerships over its 380+ year history and is now part of the Sogevinus group alongside Barros, Burmester, and others. Kopke is best known for their Colheita port (single-vintage tawny port, aged for a minimum of 7 years in small oak) and their Tawny age-grade range.

The Kopke range at Bouchon covers Colheita single-vintage expressions, aged Tawny (10, 20, 30, 40-year), and Ruby port. The Colheita series with vintages going back multiple decades represents the most specific terroir and vintage-dated product in the fortified section of the catalogue. For on-premise programmes featuring port by the glass, the Kopke Colheita provides vintage-dated tawny at accessible price points with the house's oldest-shipper provenance narrative.
