2016 Quinta do Crasto Touriga Nacional
Gillian Sciaretta, Wine Spectator, November 2020
“A beautifully crafted red that offers both concentration and elegance, with violet, kirsch and red plum reduction notes supported by nicely sculpted tannins. Ample flavors of clove, olive, mineral and black tea envelope the sandalwood-laced finish. Drink now through 2028. 75 cases imported.”

2016 Quinta do Crasto Touriga Nacional
James Suckling, James Suckling, November 2020
“Dried violets, walnut husk, dark chocolate and hint of dried chili. It’s medium-to full-bodied with sleek tannins and good acidity. Fresh blackberries and layers of chocolate and spice. Lots of new wood at the end. Better in 2022.”

2015 Quinta do Crasto Touriga Nacional
Mark Squires, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, February 2019
“The 2015 Touriga Nacional was aged for 16 to 18 months in new, light-toast French oak (two different vineyard plots averaging 35 years in vine age, fermented separately). A selection of the best barrels, it comes in at 14.4% alcohol. This is the first Touriga Nacional offering since the 2012. When first seen about a year ago, it was lovely. It is more aromatic and sensual now but still very unevolved. It still has that subtle concentration to make you feel every ounce of the fruit on the palate while never seeming jammy. The tannins are very ripe, making this easy to approach right now, but there is grip on the finish and the fruit lingers beautifully. It is very suave and refined. This has upside potential in the cellar. It is certainly a star. I'm not yet fully convinced it is a superstar, but it may one day get there. For the moment, let's be a bit conservative again. There were just 6,808 bottles produced, plus some large-format bottles.”

“A medium-bodied red with lots of ripe plum, clove, milk chocolate and prosciutto. Orange peel, too. Silky tannins and a lovely, spicy finish. Balanced and focused. Linear drive at the end. Drink or hold.”

2016 Quinta do Crasto Tinta Roriz
James Suckling, James Suckling, November 2020
“A full-bodied red with aromas of black cherries, dried geraniums, lavender and some cured meat. Smooth, ripe and chewy with slightly wood-soaked tannins. Wonderful depth of blue and black fruit. Chocolate and praline, too. Better after 2022.”
