Crasto Tawny 10 Anos

Crasto 10 Year Old Tawny Porto is an aged tawny Porto that has been matured in Portuguese oak vats for an average of 10 years. Made from selected Port wines from our best vineyards, this blend oers great complexity given by the older wines, with the younger wines bringing fresh fruit flavours and lively acidity.

Grape Varieties: Old Vines - Field Blend

Tasting Note: The wine is amber in colour and offers excellent aroma complexity, with notes of honey, figs and soft fine spices. On the palate it is fresh and perfectly balanced. The finish is delicate, elegant and persistent.

Winemaking: 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.

Ageing: In Portuguese oak vats.

Serving temperature: 12-14º
