This Port embodies the style our grandfather, João Quevedo, would have crafted in his traditional lagares. Intense, rustic, and full of character, it’s truly a Port from another era. A unique blend of the 2017, 2018, and 2019 Vintage Ports, it aged in tanks until 2021, capturing the essence of time-honored winemaking.
Dark and intense cherry colour
On the nose, this wine offers a delightful array of aromas. The predominant notes are of plums, raisins, and figs, creating a luscious and fruity bouquet. There is also a subtle presence of black pepper, adding a touch of spice to the aromatic profile.
This Crusted impresses with a robust structure and firm, rich tannins, providing a full-bodied mouthfeel that coats the palate. Its substantial texture delivers a fulfilling experience, blending harmonious flavors of plums, raisins, and figs. The smooth, long finish lingers on the palate, with a slightly dry character that enhances the wine's complexity and balance.
