1995 Porto da Silva LBV
An occasional label used by Noval for bottlings of purchased grapes. Only 250 cases of this wines was made and all was shipped to the UK.

Dark in colour and young looking in appearance; youthful blackcurrant nose. Young and fruity in the mouth, still gently tannic. Dry aftertaste, tannic impact on the cheeks. Good length. This is a very nice wine. 86/100. Drunk 17 Dec 2009.
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!
