Re: What do you think of the Red wine noval
I like all three. I think the Quinta do Noval is a pretty significant step up from the Cedra, but for a Syrah based wine in the Douro, the Labrador is quite good. I wrote about it a couple of months ago. Very solid and food friendly too. It is my opinion, that the Labrador will be significantly better with 2-3 years of bottle age from here (the 2007 that is) and will integrate beautifully, although if you like massively fruited wines in their prime, open a bottle now. I am saving my other bottle for a different type of experience.
