Quinta do Noval
Colheita 1997
Bottled in: 2023
Quinta do Noval Colheita 1997 is an old Tawny produced from a single harvest, made by from exclusively grown in Quinta do NovalĀ“s own vineyards, in the heart of the Douro Valley. Matured in oak barrels since the harvest until its bottling, it combines finesse and elegance with creamy and nutty charactistics.
The old Tawny Port for the lover of old Tawny Ports. Whereas our great 10, 20 and 40 year-old Tawny Ports are blends, designed to maintain a consistent house style, a colheita takes its personality from the year in which it was made. Each Colheita is distinctive, yet at the same time strongly market by the Quinta do Noval terroir. These are very rare Ports and some of the greatest of all Douro wines, produced in tiny quantities and undeservedly unrecognised.
Quinta do Noval is one of the few Houses of Port renowned for both its Vintage and Colheita Ports.
