Beskrivelse
The Nacional parcel is a small area at the heart of the Quinta do Noval
vineyard planted with ungrafted vines and untouched by phylloxera.
The word “Nacional” refers to the fact that the vines are Portuguese
vines growing in Portuguese soil with no foreign root stock, and are
therefore “attached to the soil of the Nation”. This great wine is a
source of pride to the people of Portugal, and at its best the finest
expression of the extraordinary terroir of Quinta do Noval.
The Nacional is a unique and extraordinary phenomenon. It does not
necessarily follow the same rhythm as the rest of the Quinta do Noval.
In some years a Nacional is produced when Noval does not even
declare the Quinta do Noval Vintage. In others, Quinta do Noval makes
a great Vintage Port, and the Nacional does not perform. More often,
we are able to make both a Quinta do Noval Vintage and a Nacional
Vintage. But when this happens, the wines are always profoundly
different
