The port Quinta do Noval Vintage Port DOC, vintage 1966 from the winery Quinta do Noval has been rated in 2016 with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the region Douro in Portugal.
Deep, bright garnet with orange brightening on the rim. Very fine nose with hints of fresh mint and black cherries along with savoury nuances. Highly elegant structure on the palate, fine fruit flavours and silky tannins akin to a Margaux, full of character. A persistent finish with some peppery savoury notes. A delicious wine that seems to have reached its peak at almost 50 years. (Drink / Store +30)
