Description
Port & Friends Wine Store in partnership with the WineStone Group is pleased to present the event: “The Legacy of Krohn“.
Established in 1865 by two young Norwegian businessmen, Wiese & Krohn has earned a distinguished reputation for producing superb Ports, with a particular focus on their exceptional Single Harvest Tawnies. The Krohn port house and its flagship property, Quinta do Retiro Novo, located at the heart of Douro Valley, have undergone a rebirth in the wake of the WineStone Group’s acquisition in 2023.
Now, in April 2026, there will be a unique opportunity to delve into Krohn’s Port library and taste some of their outstanding Ports. David Baverstock and Mafalda Bahia Machado, namely, the chairman and the winemaker for Port/Douro and Vinhos Verdes, will guide us through these precious stocks and talk about the future plans for this historic house.
