1978 Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port

[Bill Spohn]

1978 Quinta do Noval Nacional – an even rarer wine made from grapes grown in a prephylloxera vineyard in very small amounts. Paler in colour, browner in colour, and a sweeter nose, very sweet in the mouth – this would vie with any Grahams for sugar, and with a very long finish. Good wine, although I have to wonder why they declared it. A rare wine you don’t get to taste every day!!
