Quinta Do Noval 40 Year Old Tawny Port

Tawny Port from the Douro region in Portugal.

This aged tawny from Quinta do Noval showcases the richness and elegance that comes from decades of ageing in oak, resulting in a complex and concentrated expression of aged Port. The nose reveals layers of nutty aromas such as almond and walnut, complemented by dried fruit nuances, while the palate is smooth and velvety with a long, balanced, and refined finish.

Serve lightly chilled and enjoy neat as a digestif. Pairs beautifully with desserts. Suited for those seeking a luxurious after-dinner drink for special occasions, gifting moments, or relaxed evenings.

Quinta Do Noval 40 Year Old Tawny Port FAQ's

Is this a single vintage or a blend?

It is a blend of multiple vintages, each aged separately and then combined to achieve the house’s signature 40‑year profile.

Traditional Douro grapes dominate, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Francesa, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cao and Sousao.

How is this port made?
  1. Grapes are traditionally foot-trodden in lagares
  2. Fermentation is stopped early by adding grape spirit (fortification)
  3. The wine is then aged in small oak casks (cascos)
  4. Over decades, gradual oxidation develops the tawny colour and complex flavours
How should this port be served?

Serve slightly chilled at 10–14°C in a small Port glass or tulip-shaped wine glass. The narrower bowl concentrates the delicate aromas of dried fruit, nuts, and spice, enhancing the overall tasting experience.

Decanting is not required because it is a filtered Tawny Port and should be poured directly into the glass, making it convenient and ready to enjoy immediately.
