The reputation — the story that sells at the table
Crasto Reserva Old Vines is the Douro's best-value serious red. Maria Teresa (pre-phylloxera vines) is a collector wine. Wide distribution makes Crasto the accessible gateway to quality Douro.
Practice
The Roquette and Loendorf families run one of the Cima Corgo's most ambitious estates — iconic terraced vineyards above Pinhão (the Douro's most photographed stretch) planted with old schist terraces and pre-phylloxera field blends. The Reserva Old Vines and Maria Teresa (oldest vines, single vineyard) are the estate benchmarks. Crasto is also one of the Douro's most commercially accessible quality estates — the regular Reserva offering extraordinary QPR for its quality level.
