2007 Quinta do Noval vintage port
Posted: 20:31 Mon 14 Nov 2011
Deep red and with no purple, opaque. Floral nose, a little closed; what there is is dominated by lavender. Thick texture, little immediate fruit but then a wave of fruit and tannins explodes over the palate. Dry aftertaste of ripe blackcurrants. A massive finish. Really impressive. 92+/100. Drunk 13 October 2011.
