Kopke matures its port in casks in Vila Nova de Gaia, where the maritime climate provides moderate humidity and a stable temperature, favourable for slow maturation. The cellars still hold tawnies and white tawnies from the 1930s and 1940s. Kopke was founded in 1638 and is regarded as the oldest port house; since 2006 it has been part of the Sogevinus group.
