Quinta do Crasto Port 30 years old
€ 133.00
During its long ageing process aged Tawny Port will show a subtle change in colour, acquiring an amber hue turning the young rich fruit into elegance, showing a silky texture and intense, smooth flavours which only time can offer.
Crasto 30 Year Old Tawny Porto is bright amber in colour, with coppery nuances. The nose offers a remarkable complexity and aroma intensity and shows a combination of dried fruit, caramelised figs, toasted almonds and orange jam with hints of honey and delicate notes of spice and iodine. The palate is concentrated and full-bodied, with a smooth, fresh texture. Long, lingering and extraordinarily complex finish.
Food pairing
This port is delicious as an aperitif. Delicious with chocolate, desserts, nuts and delicious with aged cheese. for example: chocolate mousse with candied orange made from chocolate with 60% cocoa content
Grapes: -
The grapes, coming from Old Vines, are taken to the winery in plastic boxes and undergo strict selection on arrival. On arrival in the winery they are rigorously inspected on a sorting table. The grapes with their stems are then slightly crushed and transferred to a traditional stone tank (”lagar”) where they are foot trodden. After this, the grape spirit is added to stop the fermentation and fortify the wine. Age in 9000-litre Portuguese oak vats.
