🌟 A powerful and poised Vintage Port—bursting with youthful fruit, elegant florals, and the unmistakable structure of Retiro Novo’s old vines.

👁 In the Glass:
Inky purple-black with a vivid violet rim—intense and youthful.

👃 On the Nose:
Complex and aromatic with lush notes of blackcurrant, dark plum, and wild blackberry. A lift of red cherry and apricot adds freshness, while hints of thyme, rose petal, and violet bring floral elegance and aromatic intrigue.

👅 On the Palate:
Bold and structured with pure, fresh berry fruit at its core. Vibrant acidity adds lift, while linear, finely-knit tannins frame the wine with precision. Layers of plum, wild herbs, and spice lead into a long, harmonious finish with tremendous aging potential.

🍽 Food Pairing:
Ideal with mature cheeses like Stilton, dark chocolate desserts, or roasted nuts. Also a show-stopper paired with game meats or simply savoured on its own after a meal.

⏳ Ageing Potential:
Cellar-worthy for 20–30 years or more. Can be enjoyed young for its vibrancy, or aged to allow complex secondary notes—fig, cocoa, spice—to emerge.

✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Wiese & Krohn Vintage Port is a stunning showcase of Douro terroir and classic craftsmanship. With fruit from the esteemed Retiro Novo vineyard, it delivers purity, poise, and power in perfect balance—a wine built for the cellar and the ages.
