The 2015 Vinha Maria Teresa, a field blend from 100-year-old vines, was aged for 20 months in new oak (90% French, 10% American). It comes in at 14.6% alcohol. To my mind—reasonable minds may differ—this is usually Crasto's best bottling when it appears. When first seen a year ago, it was lovely, but it had some questions to answer. It hasn't evolved enough to cause me to change my mind much either way. The grip is subtle on the finish—Crasto always tries to tame tannins—but there is plenty of it, and the fruit lingers beautifully. It seems lush and gorgeous. To its typically delicious fruit, it adds a hint of earthiness.
