Porto Vintage 2016 Quinta do Noval

The Vintage Port of Quinta do Noval comes from the Douro Valley, east of Porto, in that area of Portugal which is suited for the characteristics and tradition of producing one of the most famous fortified wines in the world.

It is obtained starting from a blend of typical varieties of the area. The fermentation of the must is stopped by adding ethyl alcohol in order to preserve the necessary sugar content. Subsequently, the fortified wine ages in wooden barrels for a long period. It is produced in very limited quantities.

Dense and dark ruby red, at sight. The nose is seductive and complex, with velvety notes of dark fruit, composed of cherries, red and blue flowers, on an intriguing background of spices and cocoa. The taste is elegant, fresh and perfectly balanced in its components. The tannin is very present but silky and heralds a very long life.

Excellent to accompany a chocolate bar, it is ideal for meditation.
