Crasto Touriga Nacional 2020 75cl

From Quinta do Crasto, this 2020 Touriga Nacional is drawn from higher-altitude vineyards averaging 300 metres. Fruit is selected from individual plots according to the growing season, with aspect playing a key role in achieving balance and character.

The wine shows a cool, refined profile with blueberry and black cherry fruit, layered with vanilla, white pepper and cream. Given a little time in the glass, floral notes of spiced lily, freesia and honeysuckle emerge. Expressive aromatics, a succulent texture, and notable purity and finesse make it appealing on release, while its structure also suits cellaring.
