Quinta do Noval Colheita is a rare Port produced in small quantities. It is a dated Tawny Port. Each Colheita takes its personality from the Quinta do Noval terroir and from the vintage, like our Vintage Port, but aged in barrels until bottling.

Grape Varieties: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa, Tinto Cão and Sousão from Quinta do Noval's vineyard.

Tasting Note: Quinta do Noval Colheita reveals a lovely amber colour with a darker tawny core. Very intense and concentrated on the nose, it presents a harmonious and rich mix of aromas. Spicy and liquorice notes come together with toasted almond and younger fruity flavours. Some citrus notes then appear combined with its minerality and velvety texture giving a very lively wine. The Colheita is wonderful and seductive to drink now.

Vinification: The grapes were trodden by foot and fermented in the traditional lagares of the Quinta, where a disciplined and intense treading is fundamental for a good final result.

Ageing: The Colheitas are aged in barrels until the moment of bottling.

Serving Temperature: 9ºC-14ºC

Producing a vintage old Tawny: In exceptional years, certain lots of wine with great ageing potential are set aside to be aged in casks to become a Colheita, a dated Tawny Port. When we feel the wine is ready, usually after about 15 years, we will bottle some of this wine and offer it for sale. The rest of our stocks of Colheita will continue to age in barrels for further bottlings in the future, when we consider the time to be right.
