A golden, glowing wine, very concentrated. The burnt vanilla and dark chocolate flavors are intense. Like many 40-year olds, this has just a hint of a medicinal character, suggesting (rightly) that it should be sipped.

Black is a new blend produced from classic varieties that do not make it into the Quinta do Noval vintage. There are ripe blackberries, tar, smoke and orange liqueur on the bouquet that takes time to open. The palate is medium-bodied, very sleek on the entry, fleshy black fruits, sloe, spice and just a hint of white pepper, leading to a very focused finish.

Unlike aged tawnies, this is a young port aged in seasoned oak for about 3 years. It has been produced a blend of wines from traditional grapes that have been selected for their lighter colour and character. The tawny colour owes itself to this rather than long ageing and it is a smoother and lighter.

Full, fresh and fruity and in tastings often performs better than some lesser Reserve Rubies. This Fine Ruby is a blend of young Ports from different harvests blended to have robust fresh fruity aromas and flavours.
