NV Quinta do Noval Tawny 20YO

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Pale red-orange, 15% opaque. Soft nose, gentle fruit and syrup smooth entry that is full of candied citrus fruits. The acidity is very late with the palate initially flabby but comes into focus when the acidity arrives. 85/100. 22-Apr-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!
