Description

Unlike many producers Quinta do Noval's twenty year old Tawny is crafted entirely with fruit from their Estate vineyards and accordingly it's a huge step up from their other NV releases.

Noval make a very elegant style of Port, smooth, silky and ethereal in texture with freshness and a long fine finish verging on dry.

This elegance should not be mistaken for a lack of power, this is an extremely complex and powerful wine, aged with care and in a perfect spot for drinking.

Toffee, nuts, creme brulee, tea leaf, cinnamon and walnut all overlay a rich fig core, an exceptional example of a classic style.

"The colour is the classic hue of Old Tawny port with golden glints. The elegant bouquet suggests dry fruit and almonds, which give it its original character. On the palate, the elegant smoothness and high concentration herald a delectable and beautifully long finish."
Carlos Agrellos, Technical Director
