Winemaking:
Quinta do Crasto Altitude was produced with grapes of Tinta Francisca and Touriga Nacional, planted over 430 meters of altitude, in the vineyards of Quinta do Crasto in the Douro wine region. The grapes were harvested by hand, selected and subjected to controlled cooling followed by a light pressing. The fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. After the fermentation process, the wine was transferred to used French oak barrels, where it stayed for 12 months prior to being bottled.
Grape Varieties:
Tinta Francisca, Touriga Nacional.
