Hi

I read on this forum where saomeone said that this port 1997 Quinta Do Noval LBV Unfiltered was the best LBV they had ever had.

I want to try this, but can only find the 2001 version here in canada. I have tried it and like it.

However i want to find the 1997.

I am located in Canada.

Any ideas where to get? I can't find it anywhere in the us online.

Have you tried using Wine Searcher? This might help you out to find a retailer within reach who can supply you with the wine.

I posted this tasting note on the 1997 Noval LBV a few days ago.

It is certainly worth seeking out but not something to pay over the odds for. Noval LBV's are consistently sold for between £10 and £12 in the UK and I would probably pay up to £15 if I really wanted one but certainly not the price g-man found above.
