2011 Niepoort Porto Vintage

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Tuesday, April 22, 2014 - I know it's young, but I was impatient to try one of these "fabled" 2011s, so I drank this with friends over a period of a couple of days. Like an unfolding ballet this was many different drinks over time - starting with distinct blackcurrant, then moving towards "grape brandy", it then gained an edge and lost some fruit, but a few hours later the fruit returned, blackberries this time, and the finish got longer. Right now this is simply lovely - in 20 years time this could well be a classic.
