Noval 20 Years Old Tawny
Descripción
La palabra "tawny" en inglés significa "tostado". Así es como en Oporto surge una denominación para los vinos de larga crianza, que toman un característico tono pardo que comienza a delatar lo que encontraremos en cata: toques aromáticos de frutos secos y cierta corpulencia en boca. Este tawny concretamente está elaborado con vinos de diferentes cosechas y con un promedio de vejez de 20 años.

Opinión de los críticos
"The NV 20 Year Old Tawny Port was bottled in 2016 with a bar-top cork and 132 grams per liter of residual sugar. Gloriously fresh and completely alive, this adds an extra layer of depth and concentration of flavor to the 10 Year Old, of course, but that's not the main attraction here. This has all of Noval's typical grace and elegance while the complexity level is nicely above average. Then, its bright demeanor makes its fruit lifted and drives the medley of flavors home. It persists nicely, becoming something to contemplate as well as enjoy. This is a bit on the pricey side for a 20, at least judging from the list price, but it was also one of my favorites here. I don't want to be a broken record, but remember that aged tawnies should be drunk a bit cool. This was brilliant around 58-60 degrees Fahrenheit, boring around 72."
Muy buen vino de Oporto
