Very fine sediment in the rose-red wine, 40% opaque in the glass. Coffee on the nose and a touch on the palate, a palate which brings bitter cranberry fruit. The cranberry also dominates the finish. Not a good bottle. 85/100. Tasted 25-Jul-22. Decanted 11½ hours.

Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
