GRAPES VARITETIES:
Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Touriga Franca, and Tinto Cão
TASTING NOTES:
In terms of aged vintage tawnies, this beautiful wine is relatively young. That means the fruit is still there, hinting at bold red fruits as well as the dried fig and sultana flavors that have also emerged. The wine is finely balanced with its rich texture and poise coming in between dry and sweet.
FOOD PAIRINGS:
Matured Cheese | Chocolate Dessert | Digestif
BRAND NAME: Quinta do Noval
Quinta do Noval is probably the most famous Port producer in the Douro. It occupies a particularly prominent site, stacked up over the Pinhão valley, and its immaculate painted terraces very visible from a number of other estates.
"Colheita" stands for a Tawny Port produced in a single vintage and aged for an extensive period of time in oak barrels until it is bottled. These are the most premium expression of Tawny Ports.
