Quinta do Noval Vintage Port Blend 1997

$199

The 1997 vintage port is the greatest Quinta do Noval I have ever tasted. The wine of the vintage, this black/purple-colored port boasts fabulous aromatics (espresso, blackberries, licorice, tar, and flowers), followed by massive concentration, full body, and levels of depth and richness. Gorgeously sweet, stunningly concentrated and full-bodied, this profound vintage port should be legendary. Quinta do Noval's production normally approaches 4,000 cases, but in 1997, only 1200 cases were produced, so it will be extremely limited in availability. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2035.

A rainy week that screams for a comforting glass of Port next to the fireplace. Dark chocolate and violets on the nose, palate is finishing a little hot from the alcohol. Will update and adjust rating as I drink myself through the bottle

High alcohol for me. Possibly difficult to drink next to the d’Yquem.
