Normally known for relatively soft vintages, Wiese & Krohn have changed style with this 2003. This Port is firm, solid with intense fruits, black figs and fine tannins. It should have a good, medium-term future.

Mature, definitely dry in character, with attractive wood acidity. Dark gold in color, it has just enough sweetness, but the style is certainly a sipping Port, not a mixer, giving an intriguing finishing austerity.

Toffee, caramel and good maturity on this sophisticated wine. There is a spirit edge, but it works because the fruit is subservient to the maturity, ripeness and richness. The aftertaste is just perfumed.

A sweet, rich opulent wine, very seductive, with soft tannins on a pillow of ripe fruits. There is a jelly character to the texture. The wine is full and generous, with light hints of acidity and spice.

Toffee and vanilla aromas give an intensely sweet, molasses and caramel flavored wine in an almost syrup-like consistency. It is very ripe, with some honey, balanced with a surprisingly fresh citrus character.

A clean, very poised style, with attractive acidity and good balance. It’s just as deliciously fresh as a 10-Year Oldshould be.

An impressive offering from this established producer. The dry firm tannins dominate initially, following through with a solid, chunky structure. The wine has red plum skin and spice flavors that go well with the density.

A flowery delicate style from this estate in the Torto Valley. The wine is attractive, lacking the power of Krohn’s other vintage Port, soft with cherry and violets and light spice.

A dense, concentrated, but deliciously clean wine, with balanced fruit, marmalade flavor and a touch of spirit to finish. This is a wine that shows considerable character and style.
