Quinta do Noval 50 Års Tawny Port

Land: Portugal
Type: Portvin
Drue: Touriga Nacional
Alkoholprocent: 21,5%

After fifty years of ageing in oak barrels, during which time a very high proportion will have
evaporated, this remarkable Port wine has acquired a complex intensity of flavours and an
austere purity, that we believe take us to a new and different dimension in tawny port. A wine of
contemplation and meditation, the result of half a century of silent ageing within the barrel,
subject to the constant care of the technical team of Quinta do Noval, the Noval Fifty Year Old
Tawny offers an extraordinary and unique sensory experience to the sophisticated lover of
exceptional things.

AGEING
This Tawny is a blend of Ports with an average age of 50 years, matured exclusively in seasoned
oak casks with a capacity of 640 liters.
LOCATION
The wine is made entirely from grapes of Quinta do Noval, Vale de Mendiz, in the heart of the
Douro Valley.
TERROIR
The Quinta do Noval Fifty-Year-Old Tawny Port is crafted using a traditional multivarietal field
blend, a hallmark of the Douro Valley. This method involves growing several grape varieties
together in the same vineyard, which are harvested and vinified as a single batch. Key varieties in
this blend include Touriga Nacional, Sousão, Tinta Roriz and Touriga Francesa, among others,
each contributing distinct characteristics. This approach enhances the complexity and balance of
the wine, with each grape adding unique aromas, flavours, and structure. The result is a
harmonious blend that evolves beautifully over decades of ageing.
