Late Bottled Vintage Port 1994

Noval's 1994 Late Bottled Vintage (LBV) Port is an outstanding example of the exquisite craftsmanship and long tradition of port winemaking in the Douro Valley, Portugal. This vintage is considered particularly remarkable, characterized by ideal weather conditions that resulted in exceptionally ripe and concentrated grapes.
On the nose, the LBV Port 1994 impresses with a variety of aromas: notes of black cherries, blackberries, and plums dominate, accompanied by subtle nuances of dried fruits, spices, and a delicate hint of chocolate. Aging in wooden barrels further imparts an elegant vanilla note and a light hint of nuts.
On the palate, Noval's LBV Port 1994 is full-bodied and powerful. The rich fruit flavors continue, harmonizing perfectly with the silky tannins and lively acidity. This gives the wine remarkable structure and balance. Nuances of cocoa, coffee, and a hint of tobacco underscore the complexity and make every sip a delight.
The finish is long and persistent, with a perfect balance between fruitiness, tannins, and acidity. Subtle spice notes and a gentle chocolate note gently fade away, leaving a lasting impression of elegance and finesse.
Noval's LBV Port 1994 is not only an excellent dessert wine, perfect with chocolate desserts and mature cheeses, but also a wine suitable for special occasions and will delight lovers of sophisticated wines alike. Its quality and ageing potential make it a gem in any wine collection, one that will continue to evolve over many years.
