Douro Valley | Portugal Krohn’s Ruby is in a different category to many others, it’s mature and versatile with a deep red colour and a concentration of fresh, plummy fruit aromas plus hints of spice. The palate has plenty of lively cherry and curranty black fruit and it finishes rich and full with a warming softness. About the Producer Wiese & Krohn was founded in 1865 by two Norwegians, Theodor Wiese and Dankert Krohn and, in their early years concentrated mainly on German and Scandinavian markets. However over time, even though remaining a small house, they’ve built up an outstanding reputation on a wider stage. Long renowned for the quality of their sublime Colheitas (single vintage tawnies), they produce a remarkably complete range, and all of their wines excel in their category. Food Pairing Very versatile, this is good to serve after a meal as a digestif with hard cheeses, and nuts. It also works well as a good accompaniment to berries, summer pudding and chocolate.
