Crusted Port is a well-priced substitute for Vintage. Blended from a number of years, the wine is bottled without filtration so it throws a sediment (‘crust’) in bottle and should be decanted like a Vintage Port.  Deep and youthful in hue with lovely dense, ripe berry fruit on the nose (it needs time to open up in the glass), rich and succulent, mid-weight, balanced by firm, spicy tannins which linger with a hint of bitter-sweet dark chocolate on the finish. Drink now or keep in bottle for up to five years.
