N.V. Quinta do Noval Porto 10 Year Old Tawny - Portugal, Douro, Porto (4/5/2010)
Notes of caramel on the nose. Caramel and some almond notes on the palate. Alcohol, acidity and fruit all are very balanced. Really pleasant drinking 10 Year Tawny. (91 pts.)
Congratulations Stewart. Nice to read a note on this fine but simple 10 year old. The 20 and especially the 40 is such a big step up in quality but the 10 is certainly a v. repectable version of that particular category.
