Touriga Francesa

Late Bottled Vintage Ports are an increasingly popular style and this unfiltered wine from Krohn is no exception. LBV's are produced from just a single year's crop (but not every year) and with the vintage specified on the bottle, each LBV will express the particular characteristics of that vintage.

Rich and full Ruby Port with a smooth, soft finish.

With its brilliant red appearance and brick red hues on the rim, the wine offers refined aromas of cherries along with a subtle perfumed floral character as well as superb finesse. Essentially the wine is elegant in style, however, the palate presents somewhat of an enigma – initially the fruit and elegance on the nose comes through on the palate, but with gentle extract. It is superbly balanced and fresh, culminating in a somewhat robust and firm finish with a tannic grip. It will be interesting to see this wine develop as it ages, undoubtedly, in a very elegant manner.

NOTE: THIS IS A HALF BOTTLE (37.5CL) The wine displays a beautiful, brilliant chestnut colour with russet hints. Its incredibly intense and rich aromas feature dried fruit, candied fruit and caramel. The palate offers a smooth and fresh mouthfeel, carried by a beautiful acidity and distinct notes of dried fruit, culminating in a very long, elegant and velvety finish.

Now at the start of its long plateau of maturity, with its deep colour just beginning to fade at the rim, this rich, ripe Single-Quinta Vintage Port offers typical aromas of violets and roses supported by a smooth generous palate of lush, sweet dried and forest fruits.
