2011 Quinta do Noval Vintage Port
Still slightly tanky with passion fruit on the nose. Rich black fruit, plums, a wall of tannins, outstanding acidity came late, semi-sweet overall, with a long full bodied finish. I was quite impressed with this vintage of Noval and at this tasting thought it showed as well as the Nacional. Though I imagine in time this will change.
95-97 Points
