2008 Niepoort Bioma

Post by Alex Bridgeman »

Bottled April 2011. Wide rim with a hint of purple. Fragrant nose, nicely perfumed. Hollow entry but a lovely mid-palate. Sweet fruit held in check bu the cocoa tannins and the acidity and bringing an elegance to the power. Chewy tannin aftertaste. 91/100. 22-Apr-16.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!

2026: Quinta das Carvalhas 80YO Tawny
