1974 Quinta do Noval Colheita Port

[Philip Harvey]

Noval Colheita 1974

Mid amber mahogany cut through with a hint of ruby. Sweet 'porty' nose with a slight oxidised Madeira hint. A very rich almost creamy mouthfeel with mellow flavours of caramel and red cherries. In the background, a hint of coffee grounds and a distinctly ‘sweet & sour’ aspect to the flavour profile, vaguely reminiscent of sloes. Medium sweet with amazing grip and a cutting clean finish. Very good.
