Quinta do Noval LBV Unfiltered 2019 (6 Bottles) Douro, Portugal

Gold - International Port Awards

This deep ruby powerhouse from high-altitude schist vineyards explodes with ripe blackcurrant, blackberry, raspberry, wild herbs, liquorice and dark chocolate aromas that demand instant devotion. The full-bodied palate surges with explosive red fruit intensity, silky smooth texture, solid elegant tannins, vibrant freshness, and harmonious spice that lingers endlessly at 19.5% alcohol, foot-trodden, 5 years cask-aged then unfiltered for profound bottle evolution. The Quinta do Noval LBV Unfiltered 2019 delivers vintage quality structure with immediate approachability, drinking beautifully now through 2035 while improving dramatically in bottle.
