1994 Noval LBV

Post by Mahmoud Ali »

Noval Late Bottled Vintage Port(20%) Bottled 1999

This is the 9th of a case of 12 bottles. Naturally this is the most advanced of all, the colour has lightened considerably, now a dark terracotta red centre with an orange brown rim. I decanted this and served it right away - it was ready to go with no heat on the nose. It had a light, elegant, floral nose with a maraschino cherry lift. The palate was medium-bodied and fully resolved, with rich, sweet, and savoury herbal notes as well a long finish. Very satisfying and pleasant.
