Gardini, a renowned wine expert, considers the Port Quinta do Noval Vintage Nacional harvest 2003 a unique wine in the world, such honour goes to the producer Quinta do Noval, that retains it has one of the jewels of the Douro region.
This Port Vintage has resisted filoxera, a bug that by the end of the 17th century killed the vineyards in theDouro banks, never ever being exerted this wine has preserved the identity of a nation.
There will be only produced a mere three thousand bottles of this wines, making it a “venblen goods”. The demand is much higher that the offer so the prices go sky high for each bottle.
