Colheita Port 90 Points- Wine Advocate

2002 was a difficult year. Definitively the biggest challenge of the decade - even for Quevedo. Since no grapes were used to produce Vintage Port, their best selection was used to make this Colheita. With 20 years of ageing in their cellar, this is probably the most elegant and complex Colheita produced so far.

Winemakers Notes
COLOUR: Light brick

AROMA: Very complex and intense notes of spices, caramel, dried fruits.

PALATE: Powerful entry with a rich profusion of dried fruits, mid palate filled with candied fruits. Spices on the lingering finish put together this layered, complex and elegant Port. …

98/100 - Tom Cannavan

The 2001 Vintage Port Nacional is a late release, declared in 2003. Christian Seely, Owner of Quinta do Noval said that "The 2001 was extremely backward and quite closed up, dense and very tannic. Since we had just declared and released the 2000 Nacional, we decided to lay down the 250 cases of Nacional 2001. The late release has certainly tamed this. It still feels very firm and has a real backbone, but it is not overly drying and it is a lot more approachable than newly-released Nacionals can be.

Q. Do Noval Director Christian Seeley :
“Although we declared Quinta do Noval Nacional 2001 officially in 2003, we did not release the wine for sale at the time. …
