BUY THE WINE

Like the color of the Noval, a very dark and opaque shade of rosewood (red) including the meniscus. A melange of fragrances: smoky, spicy blackberry, black cherry, licorice, tar, and black pepper. The Nacional is clearly more luxurious and softer than the regular Noval bottling. It is easier and more pleasant to approach now, giving up nothing when it comes to its long-term potential, since the structure is equally bold, just a bit more cloaked by the sheer elegance and refined personality of this youngster’s fruit and texture. | 96+
