1964 Krohn White Colheita Port

[Lamont Huxley]

Bottled in 2008.

Light golden amber with bright orange highlights. This wine is really singing with aromas of golden raisins, meringue, toffee, dried papaya, dried apple and pecan - a pleasure to keep your nose stuck in the glass. Comes off silky and almost oily in the mouth with great concentration of sweet caramel, tangerine and dried fruit flavors, a touch of spirit and a long spicy and nutty finish. This was opened 4 hours prior to pouring, though not decanted. We drank half the bottle and then gave it about a 30 minute chill in the fridge before finishing it off. Although it was a little crisper with the chill on it, I preferred it at room temperature where the aromatics and texture seemed to be at their best. 95pts, Tasted 4/17/10

I tried the same experiment with my last bottle and came to the same conclusion.

I was flipping through my wine tasting book and saw I gave it the same score. A delicious treat!

I was bummed the last bottle we had of this earlier this year when Roy was down didn't show as well as normal. But as you've found out this is a very good bottle and one of the few, or i should say rather rare, older white colheita's that are available at retail.
