Quinta do Crasto

Quinta do Crasto is located near Gouvinhas in the municipality of Sabrosa on the Douro. The estate has 40 hectares of old vines, divided into 42 parcels; the best-known vineyard sites are Vinha da Ponte and Vinha Maria Teresa. The mixed-planted vineyards are farmed for low yields and produce an average of around 3,000 litres per hectare. In the cellar, the team works with hand harvesting, strict grape selection, complete destemming, temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks and oak ageing. The Roquette family took over the estate in 1981 and has since focused strongly on renewing and carefully tending the vineyards.
