TN: 1960 Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port
Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2010 12:14 am
Decant: Not Known - Slightly darker than the Noval shown alongside, with a clear centre. More heat and aniseed on the nose than the Noval, but otherwise a very similar bouquet with plenty of marmalade and seville oranges balanced by a lovely floral elegance. Light impact, medium bodied with planty of raspberries but surprisingly light and dusty. Quick heat on the aftertaste with a big finish that fills the mouth and lasts a great time - a brilliant finish. 88 points
