2005 Niepoort
Deep red, opaque and still with some youthful magenta. Harsh nose with fruit, but it is sour fruit. On the palate this also has sour fruit and big tannins. The palate is great, big and robust. The big presence carries through to the big finish, full of chewy blackcurrant skins and caramelized sugar. 91/100. 06-May-15.
