What the critics say
Robert Parker Wine Advocate
90/ 100

“The latest release of the NV Boal 10 Year Old Reserva Velha from H. M. Borges is showing well, offering up an inviting bouquet of brown sugar, sultanas, cherries and toasted pecans. On the palate, it's full-bodied, supple and satiny, with an open-knit, charming profile, underpinned by lively acids, concluding with a nicely integrated and moderately lengthy finish.”
