99 LBV Noval in minnesota

Post by Tim Swaback »

So I finally found somewhere that sells some decent port. I was thinking about going with the 99 Noval. Does anyone see anything here that looks better. Im trying to keep it below $30 and looking to buy 2 bottles or so for aging. How long do you think until the 99 noval will be best to drink? Thanks for any help you can give this beginner.

Hi Tim,

I looked rapidly the list on the website and my suggestion are these products (the ones that I have taste, others might be as good or better ?)

Graham's six grapes, excellent port, like it very much
Fonseca bin 27
Warre's Warrior
Dow's LBV
Graham's 20yo tawny
and for the cellar the Warre's 1995 LBV, a bit more expensive but excellent, can be drink now or keep in the cellar for a couple of years.
If your on a budget maybe you can buy a half bottle of vintage port.

Good luck

Gilles
