This wine is made from a blend of Douro grapes including a high proportion of Tinta Roriz and Touriga Nacional. Quinta do Crasto's Douro Red is a fresh, fruity wine which is accessible at an early age combining the character of the fruit with hints of spice. The palate is rich and vibrant well supported by soft tannins and balanced acidity. |
