Taste Notes

Deep purplish black at the core with a narrow red rim. The 2009 vintage had an exceptionally warm ripening season and will be remembered for its very low yields, producing wines of above-average density and concentration. This year's Krohn vintage is no exception. The nose has impressive depth and is built around a core of intense blackberry and currant aromas. There are also notes of plum and apricot and delicate floral aromas that are one of the hallmarks of Krohn vintages. On the palate the wine shows a lot of body and freshness with a silky mesh of very well integrated tannins. The long finish is full of juicy berry fruit flavors. A very fine classic Vintage Port, still vigorous and with potential for further bottle ageing if desired, but already close to maturity.
