The Quinta do Noval Vintage 2003 has a gorgeous raisin, fig and clove-scented bouquet with more freshness than the whole of Pomerol combined. As Christian Seely quipped, “the vines are accustomed to the heat”. It unfolds in the glass, gaining vigor, if not complexity, with touches of leather, California raisin and dried flower emerging. The palate is medium-bodied with very supple tannins, dishing out lovely ripe and intense blackberry, leather, sage, tobacco and white- pepper notes. In this vintage, the Noval Vintage does not possess the breeding or the bravura of the Nacional and yet it remains a very impressive Port – a success for the vintage. Drink 2016-2030+ Tasted January 2014.<br/><br/>
95 Wine Spectator
Intense, with cherry paste, fruitcake, singed spiced and apple wood flavors giving this a warm feel. Shows ample grip and lovely energy throughout, keeping this from being heady. Explosive fig and licorice snap notes on the finish kick this into second gear. A fun drink now, but this has fuel to burn.—Non-blind Quinta do Noval vertical (May 2018). Best from 2020 through 2045. 1,500 cases made. — JM

Quinta Do Noval
Von Quinta do Noval stammt der berühmteste aller Vintage Ports: der Naçional. Die Wurzeln dieser Gutskellerei reichen bis ins 17. Jahrhundert, und was die Reblausplage im späten 19. Jahrhundert betrifft, so gelang es diesem Haus erstaunlicherweise, die portugiesischen Rebstöcke zu behalten, anstatt sie auf amerikanische zu pfropfen, daher der einzigartige “Naçional”-Wein. Heute, unter Leitung von Christian Seely von der Versicherungsgesellschaft AXA – Millésimes, ist Quinta do Noval ebenso erfolgreich wie die in demselben Besitz befindlichen Bordelaiser Châteaux, etwa Pichon-Longueville. Ideal gelegen im Herzen des Douro-Tals, ist Quinta do Noval der einzige historische Portweinproduzent, der denselben Namen wie sein Weinberg trägt. Die steilen Hänge sind mit den edlen Rebsorten der Region bestockt, die hier prächtig gedeihen und hochklassige Früchte hervorbringen. Unter dem brillanten technischen Leiter António Agrellos präsentiert sich der Naçional als ein expansiver Portwein, dessen Kraft und Tiefe von den erdigen, würzigen, dunkel-fleischigen portugiesischen Charakteristika umwoben ist, die nach zwanzig oder mehr Jahren Reifezeit verlangen.
