Quinta Do Noval, Quinta Do Noval, Vintage Port, 2000

This is for all of you hedonists out there. The 2000 Quinta do Noval offers an opulent fragrance as a prelude to a palate crammed with rich flavours of chocolate, liquorice, asian spice and fig. Simply immense.

94+/100
Stephen Tanzer, Vinous
Saturated black ruby to the rim. Sappy aromas of black cherry, minerals and roasted nuts. Wonderfully concentrated, very sweet, silky and suave; like an elixir of dark berries. As it opened in the glass, the superb underlying structure became obvious. Finishes with big, building, extremely fine tannins and superb length and grip.

Quinta Do Noval

Quinta Do Noval

Quinta do Noval is a legendary, single estate located in the heart of the Douro valley. With 145HA under vine the estate benefits from a plethora of differing altitudes, expositions, and varietal compositions from which they select the finest grapes to go into the flagship Vintage Port. This usually equates to just 10% of the total production. All the grapes are still foot trodden in historic stone lagares and at the heart of the property lies the famous Nacional plot, an ungrafted 1.60 hectare vineyard which yields tiny bunches of highly concentrated grapes, that in turn have historically produced some of the greatest Ports of all.
