The reputation of Croft as a Vintage Port producer derives to a large extent from its ownership of Quinta da Roêda, one of the finest estates in the Douro Valley, and from such legendary wines as the Croft 1945, recognised as one of the finest of that landmark year. The character of Croft Vintage Ports is one of the most individual of all. Scented, exotic and crammed with luscious opulent fruit flavour, they develop great richness and complexity with age. 1966 was declared by a few houses but not all making it quite scarce these day. Very good port was made by those who did release it as a vintage.\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTypical blend, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca, Touriga Finca, Tinta Cao, Tinta Roriz. 75cl bottle.
