 Croft Vintage Porto : 2007 : 93 Points!
It is not the power that strikes you but the purity with black cherries,
liquorices, violets and a hint of iodine. Very tight and focused. The
palate is full-bodied with chewy tannins on the entry, pure blackberry,
raspberry, white pepper and Asian spice towards the finish. Very fine
focus, very pure and harmonious. $64.98  - Wine Advocate - 93 Points

Portuguese wine was first introduced to the region by ancient civilizations such as the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Greeks, and mostly the Romans, as the wine has been a part of these ancient traditions. Portugal started to export its wines to Rome during the Roman Empire. Modern exports developed with trade to England after a treaty in 1703.
