Quinta do noval - 40 year old tawny portquinta do noval is a port house established in 1715, and one of the few to be located in the heart of the Douro valley, at villa nova de gaia in portugal. It takes its name from its most famous vineyard, the quinta do noval. Most of the quinta's vineyards are planted with the noble Douro varieties: touriga nacional, touriga franca, tinta roriz and tinta cao. The grapes are grown on a mixture of schist and clay soils, but the presence of rocks around the vines makes harvesting difficult for the winemakers. A large-scale replanting of the vineyards was undertaken in 1994, and each plot was planted with a variety that best suited the soil, altitude and exposure. At the heart of the Quinta do Noval vineyard lies a small plot of ungrafted vines that were lucky enough to avoid the phylloxera devastation of the 19th century. Since 1993, the managing director has been christian seely, who is also in charge of a number of vineyards in europe for the axa millesimes group. This investment group also owns estates such as château pichon-longueville, château pibran and disznókő in hungary.this noval tawny 40 ans is vinified in the traditional way: the grapes are crushed to obtain the must, then macerated in lagares (the quinta's traditional stone vats) to ensure the best possible extraction during fermentation. The result is a blend of old port wines from different vintages, with an average age of 40 years, which have been laboriously blended and aged;made from touriga nacional, touriga franca, tinta cao, sousao and tinta roriz, yeasted in oak barrels.cépages : touriga nacional, touriga franca, tinta cao, sousao, tinta roriz

A choice I made after a lot of internet research on how to match my cigars.
A reference in the cellars of Portugal.
