Wiese & Krohn was founded in 1865 by 2 young Norwegians, Theodor Wiese & Dankert Krohn. In 1880 Wiese sold his shares to his partner. The company is still based in Gaia and has its own vineyards in the Douro Valley, called Quinta do Retiro Novo. 90% of their Port is exported. This 10-year-old Port is a blend of different Tawny's and has a great complexity, in which wood influences can be recognized.
