Crasto 50 Year Old Tawny Porto

Crasto 50 Year Old Tawny Porto is an aged Tawny Port that has been matured in Portuguese oak vats for an average of 50 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.

Deep amber hue, with subtle greenish highlights, an appearance that reveals a long oxidative evolution and careful ageing in wood.
On the nose, the wine reveals great complexity and aromatic depth, with dried fruits and nuts (figs, dates, walnuts, toasted almonds), candied orange peel, honey, sweet spices and a light touch of iodide. All the aroma elements are harmoniously integrated, reflecting the maturity and balance of the blend. On the palate, it shows great concentration and velvety texture, with a fine balance between structure, freshness and elegance. The sweetness is balanced by a vibrant acidity, which enhances the tasting experience, while the tannins, of excellent quality and gracefully integrated, offer solid structural support and contribute to the wine’s persistence and complexity. The finish is long, precise and lingering, reflecting the sophistication and unique profile of a very old Tawny Port.
