Altitude Quinta do Crasto 2022 is a red wine from the Cima Corgo sub-region of the Douro Valley in Portugal. This cuvée is produced from grapes grown in the estate`s highest vineyard plots, where cooler temperatures allow for a more elegant and fresh expression of traditional Douro varieties. The 2022 vintage offers notes of red berries, wild herbs and a subtle mineral undertone, with a lighter body than the estate’s flagship bottlings. It was matured in French oak for a short period to add structure without overshadowing the vibrant fruit profile.
