<p></p> <p><span>Noval LBv is a remarkable example of the Noval style. Treated exactly like a Vintage Port with only noble grape varieties from the Quinta, trodden by foot and unfiltered. Its main difference is that it is aged for four, sometimes five years in wooden vats instead of the two years typical of Vintage Ports</span></p>

<p>It was in 2004 that the first ODISSEIA red wines were produced. But Jean-Hugues Gros has been working in the Douro since 1999. After completing his oenology course and several internships in Burgundy in 1992, Jean-Hugues had the unique opportunity to spend 16 months in Porto at Sandeman. And that's how the discovery of Port wines began, the charming region of the Douro and its wines</p>

<p></p><p><span>Quinta de Marrocos </span><span>vineyards</span><span> extend up to 180m altitude, on </span><span>terraces</span><span> supported by stone walls. Exposure to the north is one of the key points, favoring a slow maturation of grapes: the altitude offers warm temperatures, the river breeze cools the vineyards at night. The average slope of 80% prevents mechanization, requiring an </span><span>"heroic" viticulture</span><span>. All work is manual, a </span><span>century-old heritage</span><span> that we want to keep, in respect for the age of the vines and the quality of the grapes. The low yields are inherent to this type of vines, without irrigation, in low fertility and a slightly acid pH schist soils.</span></p>
