1997 Niepoort Vintage Port

Post by Andy Velebil »

Like the last 1/2 bottle I posted about, this too is marred by V.A., though not as much as the previous bottle. None the less it has really tainted what lies underneath; loganberries, dusty tannins, good acidity, and a long finish. Oh well, I'm looking at the bright side as I get to have a VP on St. Patty's Day :D

Damn. I had hoped you'd get lucky for a change with this N97.
