Quinta do Noval Description
One of the oldest port houses, Quinta do Noval is also arguably the greatest. It is unique among top port houses in that most of the ports are made from estate-grown fruit and, notably, all of the vintage Noval wines are from the single Quinta do Noval vineyard. In addition, it is difficult to elaborate on Quinta do Noval without mentioning Nacional, the legendary port made from a 6 acre parcel of ungrafted vines. When declared, only 200-300 cases of Nacional will be made, and instantly become the most sought after port in the world. Many vintages of Nacional are considered as the finest ports, and some of the finest wines, ever made.
From the finest vineyard in Portugal's wild and remote Douro Valley, the greatest innovation in port seen in the last fifty years. After 15 tireless years of work re-planting this legendary estate, we are seeing fruit at a quality level exceeding our highest expectations. These new generation grapes are the foundation for Noval's great vintage ports, and have also enabled the development of Noval BLACK, a new port that showcases the tremendous Noval terroir. BLACK is a revolutionary new style of port. The bright aromatics, incredible freshness and perfect balance bring it outside the stodgy vintage-character category. Enjoy it any time: Chilled. Before dinner. After. For a seductive edge to cocktails. As an indulgence with chocolate. The custom-designed bottle is distinctive, modern yet timeless, reflecting the uniqueness of Noval BLACK. It is simply the most beautiful port bottle we've seen.
