NV Taylor White (Chip Dry)
Slightly pink in colour. Soft flavours on the palate with a slight bitterness and a goodly amount of tropical fruit. Gentle persistence on the finish. Light but by no means delicate and with a finish that fades and then unexpectedly comes back with a thump. 83/100. May 2015.
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!

A surprise to see a TN of this humble wine. And quite a high score, considering.

Seems accurate to me, though considering the normal 3-pt gap between my scores and Alex's, it does seem a bit generous. Something around 83 is about where I'd score it.

I was pleasantly surprised by how enjoyable this was. Perhaps I was generous, or perhaps my palate is getting more adventurous.
