Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port 2020
Quinta do Noval Nacional Vintage Port is one of the world’s most sought-after port wines and is produced only in selected vintages. The grapes come from a small plot of around 2 hectares in Quinta do Noval’s vineyards in the Douro Valley.
The unique thing about Nacional is that the vines are ungrafted pre-phylloxera vines, still growing on their own roots. These old vines yield very little, but produce grapes with great concentration, structure, and complexity.
The 2020 vintage appears youthful, powerful, and very structured. The wine is intense and concentrated with pronounced tannins and a clear minerality that provides both depth and precision. Despite its power, it also has an elegant balance and a long, well-defined finish.
Like most Nacional vintages, 2020 is made for long ageing, during which the wine gradually develops greater complexity and finesse.
Profile
- Aroma: Dark fruit and mineral notes
- Body: Full-bodied and concentrated

Critic rating
James Suckling on the 2020 vintage:
“So primary. Tastes like it’s straight from the lagar. A structured and well-formed Nacional that tastes more like a barrel sample. It’s full and powerful with lots of minerally tannins. Lightly sweet. They have a pretty polish. Excellent finish. Elegant with muscle. Drink after 2032.”
