De Krans Cape Tawny Port
May 20, 2010
The other day I wrote a post about the night I spent with Boplaas Cape Tawny Port - you can relive that magic here.
Cathy from Drunk! suggested I go out and buy a bottle of De Krans Cape Tawny Port - which I did - from my favourite little wine shop Vino Pronto.
I then spent the night with both.
Whilst the category of port is the same - the style and flavour profile of these two ‘Cape Tawnies’ is quite different.
The Boplaas is light, smooth, fruity, sexy and somewhat nutty.
The De Krans on the other hand is darker, more voluptuous and sultry.
Dark amber colour - voluptuous, velvet mouth feel - deep, sensuous flavours. Toffee, Cherry, Liquorice and hazelnut. Lingering after glow.
Boplaas = Sexy Model. De Krans = Cougar.
I would suggest having both in your cupboard!
