It is spicy, sweet, delicious and fresh. It tastes great. It's an easygoing winner now and at a nice price.

Old and complex on the nose, it has plenty of power and energy. That leads to a big finish.

This elegant Colheita has many virtues, including a fresh feel and a delicious caramel-laced finish. Soft and seductive at first, it adds some pop on the finish as well.

Darker flavors are in control here, as this still emphasizes complexity over sweet young fruit, relatively speaking. There is fine grip on the finish too. Spicy and fresh, this refined 10 Year Old is a winner from Krohn, part of the Fladgate Group. It's at a pretty nice price as well.

This colheita specialist is now in the hands of the Fladgate Partnership; under the leadership of Adrian Bridge, the partners have focused increasing attention on aged Tawnies and the treasures hidden in cellars like Krohn’s. While 1982 was trumpeted as a great year in many wine regions, by now, most of those wines are past their prime. Not this one. In fact, the particular way in which it merges textures and flavors is unique to the Douro: It has a gentle touch of stone, a quiet floral riff, a serious richness that defies whatever austere tendencies the mineral structure might suggest. “A world-class wine,” one taster noted, while others were taken by its completeness and the beautiful buzz of its riches.
