2009 Niepoort Bioma vintage port

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

This was tasted twice at the BFT on 24 April 2013.

A separate bottle from the previous tasting note. Red, 90% opaque. Closed nose. Restrained entry, gentle fruit and round but firm tannins. Air brings out even more tannin. Overall this is round and gentle with a lovely balance. 88/100.
Top Ports in 2023: Taylor 1896 Colheita, b. 2021. A perfect Port.

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