Why You'll Love It
Full, generous and properly satisfying, this traditional Port brings dark berry fruit, raisins and spice together with a firm backbone. Its time in wood and bottle adds depth without sacrificing fruit. Decant before serving with blue cheese, dark chocolate or a handful of walnuts.
About The Producer
Founded in 1815, Fonseca built its reputation on deeply fruited Ports with the structure to age. Three Douro estates, Quinta do Panascal, Quinta do Cruzeiro and Quinta de Santo António, underpin its distinctive style. Careful blending brings together the character of these different vineyard sites.
Winemaking Information
A blend of Douro red grapes from more than one harvest, aged for four years in large wooden vats and bottled without filtration. It then spends three years in bottle before release. Natural sediment forms as it ages, so decant carefully. The date on a Crusted Port label refers to bottling, not a single harvest. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
