Krohn Rio Torto Reserva Port
Production
Krohn Reserva Port – Grapes are sourced from Krohn’s Quinta do Retiro Novo estate and neighbouring vineyards in the Rio Torto valley near Pinhao. Fermentation is in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, which is interrupted by the addition of grape spirit to preserve a certain degree of natural sweetness. The Port is aged for 2 years in 547-litre oak barrels (the traditional ‘pipe’) and large vats. Bottled unfiltered.
Tasting notes
Deep red colour; opulent, rich plummy fruit with a surprising depth of flavour, expressing pure, youthful and high-quality fruit.
Food match
This Reserva port is bottled unfiltered so may form a fine sediment. Best served after a meal with mature hard cheeses or cakes made from almonds, chestnuts, chocolate or red fruits.
