2008 Niepoort Bioma

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled April 2011. Wide rim with a hint of purple. Fragrant nose, nicely perfumed. Hollow entry but a lovely mid-palate. Sweet fruit held in check bu the cocoa tannins and the acidity and bringing an elegance to the power. Chewy tannin aftertaste. 91/100. 22-Apr-16.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.
