1997 Niepoort Colheita (bottled 2017)
Posted: 22:59 Wed 03 Jan 2018
Bottled 2017. Light orange colour, 30% opaque. Some over-ripe orange on the nose; sweet in the mouth with muscvado sugar and dates dominating. The aftertaste is gentle and leads to a finish of burnt sugar and caramelised fruit. Pleasant, but will probably be more powerful in later years. 89/100. 06-Nov-17.
