I think I would be interested in a few for this price. In my region minimum is 31,90 EUR.

This is a typical price for this wine and it is well worth the asking price. It is the best Port ever produced by Quinta do Silval, imo.

Is Noval's Silval a true SQ - i.e. entirely from Q. Silval, or is it a blend of wines including Q. Silval?

- I thought it was the latter, but I could be mistaken..

Pro Noval Silval SQ:

If you choose for searching: "Silval" you get "Silval Vintage 1998: 45 EUR"
and "Silval Vintage 2000, 25 EUR".

If you choose "Quinta do Noval" you also get "Silval Vintage 1998: 45 EUR".

My conclusion: they forgot Silval 2000 if you choose "Quinta do Noval.

But yes, it's not very clear.

Is this Quinta do Silval 2000 or Quinta do Noval Silval 2000 ?
- these are two entirely different wines from different producers

Noval use "Silval" as a brand name - and, as far as I can remember, it is not an SQVP but a blend of wines from QdN and other Quinta's - but not Qunita do Silval

Quinta do Silval is an independant Quinta that is now a hotel - Roy posted a report on them in advance of the Harvest Trip last year to make us all believe that that is where we would be staying in the Douro - and we fell fo it
