KrohnVintagePort2016

2016 is an outstanding vintage of real purity that is likely to become one of the most rare and sought after vintages. Krohn Vintage Port 2016 has aromas of cranberry, raspberry, cherry, plum and apricot. Rich and full in the mouth with voluptuous black forest fruit and fine tannins.

‘The keynotes of 2016 are purity and refinement. The Vintage Port displays elegance and poise, a wonderful purity of fruit and tannins of great quality… The 2016s are likely to become rarities in future, particularly given the trend towards enjoying Vintage Ports young.’ Adrian Bridge, Krohn MD

Wiese & Krohn was founded in 1865 by two Norwegians – Theodor Wiese and Dankert Krohn. Long renowned for the quality of their sublime Colheitas (single vintage tawnies), they produce a remarkably complete range for a small house and each wine excels in its category. The Quinta do Retiro Novo estate in Sarzedinho, in the Rio Torto valley, is all A grade vineyard. Vinification takes place here, with some of the top wines still being trodden by foot. Since 2013 Krohn has been part of the Fladgate Partnership – alongside Taylor’s, Fonseca and Croft.
