1994 Quinta do Noval Vintage Port

Post by Otto Nieminen »

Quinta do Noval 1994 was a brutish wine that smelled more like a Barossa Shiraz minus the oak than Port! Tar, black fruit, mulberry, huge sweetness, chocolatey, blackpepper, coffee, lifted. The palate is less of a blockbuster, harmoniously tannic, very sweet but with some savoury elements. Nice but too much like a Barossa Shiraz for me to truly enjoy.
