Identified as an Old World Riesling not from Germany very quickly. As Stevie had just come back from Portugal, I suggested Portuguese and 2-3 years old. I remain very proud.

This is one of Niepoort's projects and making Riesling on the Douro may seem a tragedy but it isn't.

Genuinely excellent Riesling of a style I really enjoy. It is not the Germanic power-house type nor the Australian fruity style but something more subtle. Stevie donated another of these to my cellar and I am very grateful.

Good to see this is coming around nicely. It was a bit difficult to judge when I tasted it nearly two years ago.
