Product information "Quinta do Crasto Tawny Port 20YO 0.75L -GB-"
The grapes from the old vines of the Portuguese Quinta do Crasto in the Douro Valley are harvested and inspected by hand. They are then lightly crushed, stems and all, and transferred to the traditional granite tank (lagar) to be foot-trodden. Fermentation is stopped by adding grape brandy when the perfect level of sweetness is reached. Aging takes place in Portuguese oak barrels. Each grape variety matures separately and is only later blended with the other wines. This Quinta do Crasto Tawny Port 20YO is an "Old Tawny Port," aged for an average of 20 years. By blending the older wines, which lend it great complexity, with the younger wines, which provide freshness with fruit aromas and lively acidity, a very special aged port is created. It presents itself in amber color and possesses excellent aromatic complexity with notes of orange peel, honey, nuts, and a hint of iodine. On the palate, it is full-bodied and smooth with a fresh structure. The finish is complex, elegant, and long-lasting.
