Miguel Roquette of Quinta do Crasto joined us recently to discuss the history of the winery and one of the oldest wine regions in the world.
Located in a prime spot in the Douro Demarcated Region in Northern Portugal, Quinta do Crasto has been in the family of Leonor and Jorge Roquette for more than a century.
