Quinta do Noval Duriense Cedro do Noval 2016

75cl

Named after the emblematic cedar tree that dominates the terrace of Quinta do Noval, Cedro is an authentic expression of the Douro. Principally made up of classic Portuguese varieties, it also contains a proportion of Syrah, which rounds out the fruit and gives the wine enormous charm and accessibility. Because of the inclusion of this non-indigenous grape variety it must be referred to as from 'Duriense' rather than Douro.
