Quinta do Crasto Colheita Port 2005

€ 49.00

A colheita port, ruby, almost opaque, in color. An intense complex aroma of ripe fruit. Fresh and elegant in the mouth, the tannins are soft but present. The aftertaste is an aromatic explosion of black currants. A fresh, complex, lingering port wine that announces great aging potential.

Food pairing

Ideal after meals. Goes very well with strong cheeses such as, Stilton, Gorgonzola, Roquefort, blue cheeses & Portuguese Serra (Portuguese sheep's cheese). It can also be served with fruit or chocolate desserts, and goes well with a good cigar. A young vintage port can also be added to the sauce of a pepper steak. Simply delicious!

Grapes

Store & Serve

Since this wine is still ripening in the bottle, sediment can form over time, which means that the wine has to be decanted before consumption. Open 2 hours before decanting. After decanting, the wine will quickly reach its peak and is best consumed during the day.
