1963 Quinta do Noval

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Noval 1963, bottled by Grants of St James. Pale copper red colour, 30% opaque. Subdued, some worrying hints of wet cardboard. Sharp and bitter fruit on the palate. Bitter aftertaste. Lots of heat on the finish. Suffering from very slight TCA. Not Rated. Tasted 03-Mar-23.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
