In the early twentieth century the property was purchased by Constantino de Almeida, founder of the Constantino Port house, and later passed through his family before Leonor and Jorge Roquette took over ownership and management in 1981. Now guided by the fourth generation of family stewardship, including their children Miguel, Tomás, and Rita, the estate sits on steep schist slopes in the Cima Corgo, between Régua and Pinhão, and has become one of the region's most respected producers of both Port and Douro table wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 30 Year Old Tawny is built from a careful blend of old reserve wines averaging three decades in cask, sourced from Crasto's historic vineyard plots.

He turned to agriculture, first working organic farms in Australia, then apprenticing under Stephen Dooley at Stephen Ross Wine Cellars, David Ramey at Red Car Wine Company, and Paul Hobbs at Viña Cobos in Argentina.
