Quinta do Noval 1966
Douro
In original wooden case
Tasting note: Light red color, a bit deeper than the Warre 63 which was served alongside. Soft round taste, sweet with good length. Wonderful balance. Served blind by Dirk Niepoort after dinner at his house. The depth of taste, sweet dried fruit and lighter color made me go for a classic vintage from the sixties. 1966 appears sweeter than the 63. Very good wine. Last tasted February 2014. EV.
