Richard Mayson's top 10 single-quinta Ports
Quinta do Noval 2004 
Dense, deep and closed on the nose but with plenty underneath. Pure berry fruit interwoven with dense, finegrained tannins leading to a close-knit spicy finish. There was no Nacional declared in 2004, so these legendary grapes are included in the blend. 19pts/20
Price: £60 Nickolls & Perks, Tanners
Drink: 2020–2040
Alc: 20%

The Wine Store at La Hogue has Graham's Malvedos 1999 in stock. We tasted it at the port evening last Friday. It was fantastic.
