Quinta do Noval Porto Colheita Tawny 2000

Blog

The 2000 Quinta do Noval Porto Colheita Tawny is superb, showing warm and welcoming notes of caramel, dried fruit, honey, sultana along with a pinch of toast. The mind immediately jumps to pairings like stilton, Roquefort, or dried fruit, though, surprisingly the staff at Noval recommend trying it with fresh carrot, unpeeled. I love the this Port’s vibrancy and balance, the palate bright, like a newly minted penny, it’s brimming over with walnut shells, figs, golden raisins, and spice cake. Just lovely. 20.5% ABV | Sample
