Port is a special wine in every way. The method of preparation is absolutely unique. The fermentation of the grapes only lasts until there is enough unfermented sugar for the taste. Then wine alcohol is added to a level of about 20 degrees. The fermentation stops abruptly, the young port wine is born. It is the same with port as for example with Bordeaux wine; there are simple basic wines and there are “Grands Crus”. The port house Quinta do Noval is such a Grand Cru on the Douro and Pinhão rivers, where the soil consists of slate and granite.

Excellent for many moments of enjoyment: great with chocolate, almonds, walnuts and beautiful rich cheeses. To serve cool. Delicious with aged cheeses.
