Wine Description:
This red blend from Quinta do Crasto, a historic estate in the Douro Valley, is a superior blend of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, and Tinta Roriz grapes. The wine is intense and concentrated, with aromas of dark fruit, spice, and leather. On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful, with a smooth and velvety texture. The tannins are well-integrated, adding structure and balance to the ripe fruit and spice flavors. The finish is long and lingering, with a hint of oak and tobacco. This is an excellent example of the quality and complexity of wines from the Douro Valley.
Pros:
  • This full-bodied red wine is rich and complex with notes of blackberry, dark cherry, and pepper

Cons:
