Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Fonseca Crusted Port FAQ's

What is crusted port and how does it differ from other ports?

Crusted port is a traditional style made by blending several wines, ageing them in large wooden vats without filtration, and then bottling unfiltered. Unlike tawny or vintage port, it develops complexity over time in bottle and may form sediment - the “crust” - which is part of its character.

How is this port made?

It is created from a blend of robust Douro grape varieties. After fermentation and fortification, the wines age for about four years in large wooden vats. They are then bottled without filtration and cellared for approximately three additional years before release, allowing layers of depth and aroma to develop naturally.

How should it be served and enjoyed?

Serve lightly chilled (14–16 °C) to bring out its fruit intensity and silky structure. Crusted port is best decanted before serving to separate any sediment that may have formed.

It’s great to enjoy at festive meals, holiday gatherings, and as a thoughtful toast to good cheer.

Is this a good gift and why?

Yes, the engraved message adds heartfelt sentiment to an already special bottle. Whether for Christmas, New Year, or winter celebrations, the personalised engraving turns this fine port into a thoughtful gift that can be shared and remembered.
