“Quinta do Crasto’s ‘Crasto Superior’ is produced with a frankly rather intense attention to detail. The grapes, sourced directly from their Quinta da Cabreira in the Douro Superior, undergo a visual sorting process that’s… well, let’s just say dedicated. Following gentle pressing, the must is placed in stainless steel tanks – ensuring a rather precise temperature control, of course. A full year in French oak barrels is, naturally, employed, adding a touch of French finesse to the proceedings, presumably with the advice of a certain discerning *sommelier*. It pairs exceptionally well with grilled beef, a robust combination that nicely balances the wine’s intensity.”
