1976 Quinta do Noval Colheita (bottled 2017)

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled 2017. A deep amber colour with a lovely nose of warm almond biscuits. Sweet and smooth with lots of tobacco and a great dose of acidity that shows mainly on the aftertaste. The palate is thick and sweet, very lively with lots of lime and tobacco. The aftertaste is big and full of oranges and sweet honey. 05-Dec-17. Decanted 2 hours.
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!
