Croft 430th Anniversary Celebration Reserve Ruby Port Wine 750ml

Croft is one of the oldest of the original port houses and was founded over four centuries ago in 1588. It is the owner of one of the most famous properties in the Douro Valley the beautiful estate of Quinta da Roeda whose wines form the cornerstone of the distinctive Croft house style. This innovative new Rose style of Port has been made by a new technique which extracts fresh fruity flavours and a subtle and delicate pink colour from limited contact with the skins of classic Port grape varieties grown in top quality vineyards of the Douro Valley. The result is wonderfully fresh and vibrant full of the rich fruit flavours of Port but with a unique and distinctive appeal. It has created the perfect opportunity for Port to be consumed in the warmer months of the year when Port may not otherwise be the drink of choice.

Attractive floral notes underline the pungent aromatic raspberry fruit aromas. The palate is full of deliciously ripe cherry and raspberry fruit flavours with lovely nuances of honey and grapefruit.

This port is best served chilled and is an excellent aperitif accompanied by roasted almonds or olives. It is also a delicious accompaniment to lighter desserts and fruit.
