Description
The 2011 Port vintage was one of the best in recent memory, so it comes as no surprise that the exceptional Quinta do Noval produced a rich, dark, concentrated LBV Port that year. Ripe aromas of cherries and blackberries are followed by vibrant, focused fruit on the palate. The complex structure is complemented by luscious fruit and silky tannins. The wine is unfiltered and therefore decanting is recommended.

It was later owned by the Van Zeller family who had to rebuild following a catastrophic fire in 1981. Finally Quinta do Noval was sold to AXA insurance group in May 1993.
