1998 Quinta do Noval Silval

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Mid red, opaque. Stink on the nose. Soft and sweet entry, but a touch of the bottle stink. Shows surprisingly tannic making it less approachable than most other 1998s. Hot aftertaste. 84/100. Tasted at the BFT on 24 April 2013.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
