TN: 2005 Quinta do Crasto Vinha Maria Teresa Douro red

Post by Rune EG »

Decanted 5.5 hrs. Dark red colour. Wonderful aroma of oak, berries, minerals, all in very good harmony. Medium to full body. Powerful and elegant, fruit/oak/minerals in a nice structure. Tiny touch of raspberry. A bit weak towards the end. Long aftertaste. Considered one lower, but ended at 95 pts.

This is a wine I under estimated when young. I agree - a great wine! [cheers.gif]
