Croft Quinta do Roeda, 1997 Vintage Port

Croft's main property in the Duoro valley is the Quinta da Roêda, near Pinhão.

This single vineyard Port is a lighter style than vintage Port and will mature more quickly. The vineyard combines new technologies with traditional foot treading. This developed Port still retains a youthful quality of berry and cassis fruit notes, which is backed up by rich, nutty characters and a spicy undercurrent. The elongated finish really fills the mouth.

Decant this a couple of hours before serving with cheese or a chocolate dessert.
