1964 Niepoort Colheita (bottled 1971)
Bottled in 1971. Red-amber in colour, 20% opaque. Oxidative but clean colheita nose. Sweet flavours on entry, modest texture but flavoursome palate. Good acidity and generous flavours. Harsh spirit burn on the aftertaste, before a light and short burnt toast finish that blossoms nicely. Pleasant colheita. 86/100. Drunk 24-Jun-14. Pop 'n' pour.
