2011 Ramos Pinto
Deep purple with a fruity nose that is pronounced and profound. Hollow entry, but with fruit that blossoms nicely on the late palate. Charcoal tannins and soft acidity gives good structure. Powerful tannins dominate the persistent finish. 91-93. Snapshot tasting on 24 April 2013.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
