1900 Krohn Colheita Port

[Otto Nieminen]

Krohn Porto Colheita 1900 bottled 1996; drunk on the 15.1.2008

Bottled 1996. Brown. The nose was delightfully rancioed, with a great sweetness and earthiness. It seems quite young for a Colheita of this age, as though it has rancioed aromas, it isn't as bright and citrussy as the other older Colheitas I've had. Sweet and supremely intense, good acidity, integrated alcohol. A wonderful wine.

Trying to capture the colour with amateurish photographical gifts:

Otto,

thanks for the note. I love reading TN's on these really old Colheita's. And the pic is very cool, especially becuase you can see what people mean when they say there is yellow or green in the color.
