Quinta do Noval Nacional, Vintage Port 2024 En Primeur (Single Bottle)

£900.00
ALC 19.5%
Flag of Portugal PORTUGAL

This wine is still to be bottled and as such the advertised ABV may be subject to change on its eventual arrival and inspection into the U.K.

A very deep, almost opaque colour, and a nose of great complexity, marked by ripe wild berries, black cherry and plum, enveloped by notes of dark chocolate, liquorice and various spices. On the palate, the wine is dense, concentrated and very precise, combining depth with great purity of fruit, ample tannins and a freshness that gives it definition and tension. The balance achieved in the vineyard throughout the 2024 cycle gives the wine exceptional harmony and definition. The finish is very long, precise and persistent. A Nacional of great structure and distinction, made for very long aging.

Quinta do Noval

Quinta do Noval is the only "Portuguese" house to have gained a reputation in the English market. First appearing in land registries in 1715, it was sold after the phylloxera outbreak to the distinguished Port shipper António José da Silva in 1894.

He and his family transformed the estate, building the distinctive wide terraces with whitewashed walls. Noval was the first to introduce stencilled bottles, old tawnies and LBV. In 1982 following a disastrous fire, a new lodge was built under the auspices of Cristiano Van Zeller and Noval were the first to move their stocks from Oporto to the Douro. In 1993 it was sold to the AXA group and under the guidance of Englishman Christian Seely is producing premier league Port. Noval produces the legendary Nacional in good years, from a small parcel of ungrafted vines.
