This Senador Rich Tawny Port has a brownish color and is matured in Krohn's cellars. Thanks to its long aging in port casks, this Tawny has a full and robust flavor, yet a smooth character.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The family business Krohn\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nKrohn was founded in 1865 by two young Norwegians, Theodor Wiese and Dankert Krohn. Since then, the port company has built an excellent reputation for its barrel-aged Ports. Going back in time, Krohn was a very small company, focused solely on exporting port wine to the Scandinavian and German markets. In the early 1900s, the company expanded into new markets, including the Netherlands. In 1880, Wiese decided to sell his share to Krohn, as the company was too small to be shared between two owners. However, he continued working as a commercial agent. Thanks in part to his work, sales increased significantly, and the company began to grow. After Krohn's death, it was continued by his wife and daughters, thus remaining a true family business.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Three years of maturation for Tawny Port\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nKrohn Tawny matures for three years in small wooden barrels of approximately 630 liters. As it ages in the barrel, Tawny Port gradually loses the deep ruby ​​color of its youth and acquires the alluring amber hue known as tawny. At the same time, the wine gradually softens and mellows, and its aromas become richer and more complex. After three years of aging, the wines are blended a few months before bottling for balance and harmony.\n\n\n\n The warm aroma offers a broad, open note of currants, sweet black fruit, chocolate, and a hint of vanilla. The palate of this Senador Rich Tawny is creamy and full-bodied, with abundant notes of plums, raisins, vanilla pods, and cherries. What a delicious port!","brand":"Boomsma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775926243407,"sku":"9497","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/krohn-porto-senador-rich-tawny-port_9497.webp?v=1770120238"},{"product_id":"krohn-ruby-port","title":"Krohn Ruby Port","description":"A young port with a distinctive character, this Krohn Ambassador Ruby Port. This Krohn Ambassador Ruby Port is a young blended port that is slowly aged. This rather full-bodied ruby-red port has a stylish, fruity nose full of intense and concentrated aromas of blackcurrant and cherry. It is full-bodied and robust. It has a fresh, youthful, and fruity flavor, is relatively sweet, and has less tannin than other ports. Therefore, despite its ruby ​​color, it is considered a light port. The wine has good weight and structure with a fine finish.\n\n\n \nThe Krohn Port House was founded in 1865 by the young Norwegians Theodor Wiese and Dankert Krohn. Several generations of the Portuguese Carneiro family managed the company, but in 2012, no successor was found within the family. The company was therefore transferred to the Portuguese family business The Fladgate. Krohn is one of the few independent family businesses remaining in the city of Porto and is particularly known for its Colheita and Vintage Port.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Perfect conditions for port\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n And Oporto is precisely the town that immediately comes to mind when we think of port. This region is characterized by steep banks with difficult-to-reach terraces along the river. The vines are planted on these banks, where they enjoy the radiant sun. This region experiences very hot, dry summers and freezing, wet winters. The soil is formed by rock-hard, impermeable granite and slate.\n\n\n \nKrohn Ruby Port is made from wines aged for three years in large wooden barrels, where they soften and develop without losing their fresh, intensely fruity character and deep ruby ​​color. This is a fruity wine with a beautiful red color that should be consumed relatively young to maintain its freshness. This wine is ready to drink and does not need to be decanted. The bottle should be stored upright, protected from light, at a cool, constant temperature.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e What does Krohn Ruby Port taste like?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\n Ruby port, with its firm tannins and concentrated fruitiness, is the style best suited to the classic pairing of port and cheese. It pairs particularly well with blue-veined and rich-flavored soft cheeses. It also pairs well with dark chocolate.","brand":"Boomsma","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775914381391,"sku":"9500","price":9.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/krohn-ambassador-ruby-port_9500.webp?v=1770120240"}],"url":"https:\/\/perfectewijn.be\/en\/collections\/wijnhuis-krohn-port.oembed","provider":"Perfecte Wijn","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
