Anything but Port, this includes all wines other than fortified wines (which have their own section) even if they call themselves Port. There is a search facility for this part of the forum.

2008 Charme

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

By Niepoort.

Field blend. Pale in colour and with a light centre; rose coloured rim. Mature on the nose with good complexity and concentration; lots of sous bois. Soft and silky texture, lightweight but elegant. A powerful aftertaste and a finish that fades quickly. Overall a light and delicate red wine. 85/100. 04-Sep-14. Decanted 1 hour.
Top Ports in 2024: Niepoort 1900 Colheita, b.1971. A near perfect Port.

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