Description and Reviews:
Quinta do Noval is a much-venerated name in the Douro Valley and Nacional is undoubtedly one of the most legendary fortified wines in the world. It is produced from a small area at the heart of the Quinta do Noval vineyard planted with ungrafted vines that have remained untouched by Phylloxera and has an average production of between 250 and 275 cases. 1994 was widely considered to be an exceptional vintage for Ports of fabulous harmony and incredible structure.
99 pts Robert Parker - Very deep colour. Amazingly fresh, focused nose with lovely clarity and precision. Notes of blackberry, plum and raspberry. The palate has great freshness and good acidity with incredible fruit and good structure. Still very youthful and spicy, this is evolving very nicely.
