ryansnyder reviewed Quinta do Crasto Vintage Porto 1995 on September 10, 2006 Coming from a vintage that was not widely celebrated, the Quinta do Crasto port proved worthy of its vintage designation. "Fresh!" is the first word that comes to mind when speaking of the ripe raspberries, pomegranate and fresh Turkish fig flavors that portrude from the wine. Towards the end a spice array of cocoa powder, orange zest, cinnamon and cayenne appears, and afterwards the minute-long finish tastes of fruit with a hint of spearmint. Well balanced and made to last through 2015. |
