Krohn
Colheita 1967
A deliciously sweet and nutty port wine, brimming
with freshly cracked walnuts and pecans, the fruit
being reminiscent of caramelised figs, and layers
of woody, brown spices. All flavours are in total
harmony, the sweetness perfectly balanced with good
acidity, for a long lasting finish.
Krohn are a small family-owned Port house run by brother
and sister Jose and iolanda Carneiro. 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. All the wines are
matured in cellars at Villa Nova de Gaia.
