2011 Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port

[David Spriggs]

Opaque! Deep intense nose. Roasted cherry nose. Very dense on the palate. Lots of material here. Drinkable now! Really suave mouth feel. The fruit is covering a lot of the structure right now. I’m sure that there are loads of tannins here, but it’s really hard to see the tannins now. Very pure. This will likely age for a very long time just on the density of the fruit – not to mention the tannins and very good acidity. A great Noval Nacional! 95-97+ points
