Quinta do Noval Nacional 2004 Vintage Port

Quinta do Noval Nacional 2004 Vintage Port

As is so often the case with Nacional, 2004 was made in a year in that wasn't universally declared and was held at the estate until 2014.  Like all Quinta do Noval Nacionals, it's a magnificent wine, one that boasts sweetness, ample black fruits and firm structure.  Drinking well now, it's hard to see this not lasting for another 50 years.

"A young port with balance and finesse with a medium body, lovely sweetness and length. Plenty of subtle black cherries. Floral and precise. Bark, and fruit at the end. Fine tannins. Drinkable, but better in a few years." - 93/100, James Suckling

Robert Parker: 97/100
