2013 Quinta do Noval

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep magenta with a purple edge. Big and floral on the nose, sweet and full of fruit. Wonderful perfumed fruit on entry with lots of supporting acidity. The tannins are firm and more burly than in the 2012 vintage, and the wine is more complete with power replacing finesse. Lovely port. 94/100. 04-May-16
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny
