Porto, Douro, Portugal
Had this at a tasting and grabbed a bottle. The House of Croft, founded in 1678, was one of the earliest shippers of Port wines since the seventeenth century. Medium Amber with aromas of dried fruits and nutty earthy notes. On the palate flavors of juicy ripe red fruit, honey and raisins with nutty spice. Lingering sweet finish ending with toasty spices. Great value.

May 20th, 2020Aged at minimum in 7-year casks. Delicately balanced acidity and sweetness. A little nectarine, spiced almond butter, and cream.
