Crasto 40 Year Old Tawny Porto

Crasto 40 Year Old Tawny Porto is an aged Tawny Port that has been matured in Portuguese oak vats for an average of 40 years. Made from selected Port wines coming from our best vineyards, this blend combines the complexity given by the older wines with the freshness and lively acidity delivered by younger wines. The result is a sophisticated, balanced wine.

During its long ageing process aged Tawny Port will show a subtle change in color, acquiring an amber hue turning the young rich fruit into elegance, showing a silky texture and intense, smooth flavors which only time can offer.

With a bright, deep golden hue, marked by amber highlights and delicate greenish nuances, Crasto 40 Year Old Tawny Porto offers unparalleled complexity and aroma intensity, the result of decades of wood ageing. On the nose, aromas of nuts and dried fruits, such as figs and dates, emerge and combine elegantly with subtle hints of caramel, honey, candied orange peel, sweet spices and iodine. On the palate, it is full-bodied and complex, with the sweetness being balanced by the lively acidity. The velvety texture, with extremely elegant and polished tannins, gives harmony to the wine, while the refreshing acidity intensifies the whole experience. The finish is long, persistent and memorable.
