Quinta do Noval Nacional
Vintage 2000
“Very good colour. Even bigger than the above. Marvellously
concentrated fruit on the nose. Really most impressive. Beautifully
poised and balanced. This is essence of wine. Remarkably complete.
Harmonious and very, very lovely. Not an element out of place.
Excellent. From 2020.
19.5/20

'Dark, rich, big. Rather quiet at the moment, but all elements
in place; big ,ripe tannins and huge fruit. Very good indeed.
A sleeper...' CM
'Nose has depth, character and
class. Firm, full fruit and balance with sweet full tannins.
Needs years.' NL

***** Decanter award
“Deep inky colour: closed and withdrawn on the nose
but underlying power evident. Incredibly dense, with liquorice-like
richness and intensity. Essence of great Port.”

2000 Vintage
“Very Sweet and sophisticated. Lots of tannin and a
very dry finish but before a whack of intensely sweet liquorice
fruit. There’s something swashbuckling and Californian
about this wine-Turley Zin? Should be a sellout.”
