NV Quinta Nova de Nossa Senhora do Carmo CLA Special Reserve

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Deep red and opaque. Softly fruity on the nose, very attractive. Fruit driven entry, light but very pleasant. Soft, sweet and ripe fruit and an adept structure. Light on its feet and gorgeous to drink. A very fine ruby port focused on delivering balanced fruit without taxing the mind of the drinker. 88/100. 04-May-16
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!
