About this Item
Situated on the banks of the River Douro, in northern Portugal, Quinta do Crasto has been owned by the de Almeida and today, the Roquette family, for over a century. The estate produces white and red Douro wines and premium Port wines, mostly from single vineyards or quintas. Their philosophy of grape growing is to respect the ecological heritage of the vineyards and preserve the biodiversity in the Douro Valley.
Critics Ratings
‘Very suave and silky, this is filled with fresh blueberry, boysenberry and cocoa powder flavors that are fresh and juicy, with notes of hot stone, cedar, paprika and dark chocolate on the lush, creamy finish.’ - Kim Marcus, Wine Spectator, 91/100 (Jun 2014)
‘Racy and with great structure. Cool and fresh. An athlete of a wine.’ - Jancis Robinson MW, JancisRobinson.com, 17/20 (Feb 2014)
