The estate and the wine |
|

Quinta do Noval is one of the most prestigious Port houses, renowned for crafting some of the world’s finest wines. Nestled in the enchanting slopes of the Douro Valley, this iconic estate produces wines that stand as true gems of the wine world.

Born from a dry, sun-drenched vintage, the 2022 Red Porto Vintage emerges as a wine for long-term aging, with perfect maturity. Its magnificent colour precedes a remarkable concentration, revealing intense aromas of ripe fruit, black plum, violet, and wild berries. On the palate, it offers great depth, with spicy notes characteristic of the Vale de Mendiz terroir, complemented by fragrant flavours that harmonise beautifully with its silky, velvety texture. Simply magical. Best enjoyed with a chocolate dessert or a blue cheese. |
