But at the same time, it will had complexity and maturity to this blend!

If the oldest port you will use to make the crusted port is already 4 years old would not most or all sediment have settled out and any crusting and subtleties come from the younger ports in the blend ?

But age worth wines, those that develop in the bottle, usually more expensive and of much better quality are bottled after light filtration, if any at all. Winemakers in this case try to preserve the best quality of the wine, regardless if it will develop sediment after some months in the bottle. For this reason, decanting is recommended for older and better wines, because these are bottle unfiltered and will develop sediment after some time. Sediment in the end is a signal of quality. Also in the case of the Crusted Port. I hope it has helped. Better explanations are welcome!

What does it add to the port? I enjoy reading about your winery, and your blogs. thank you

So it’s particularly pleasing to see such a positive reaction to a new producer embracing the style, and especially the interest from countries that have little history of buying crusted ports in the past.
