Tripping. This is real wine. Red cranberry and red plum with eucalyptus and bay leaf on the nose. Fresh attack and pure crunchy red and black fruit on the palate. Delicious fine grain tannins and a real and not fake finish. Pure wine man. #douro #portuguesewine #portugal #crasto somewhat reminiscent of Tuscany but not so tannic.

Dec 1st, 2020A disconcerting note of wet wool on the nose is distracting, but in the mouth the wine has lovely cassis, blackberry and plum fruit. Atyptical for this property which usually has more balance and fruit intensity.
