2005 Niepoort Vintage Port

Post by Eric Menchen »

Lots of concentrated berry aroma, with blackberry, blueberry, and cherry. It is quite tannic in the mouth, and seems drier than most Port, or is that the pucker from the tannins talking? Really tannic with a strong finish. Good fresh fruit too, with some plum to go with those berries that I smelled. There is lots of potential here, but the tannins are more distracting than pleasant at this time. 90 points. Potential to go to 95?
