2008 Niepoort Charme Douro
Full bodied and fresh with a slight dirty nose. Sexy strawberries with lots of minerality and spices. A very complex wine with a lingering finish. Forgive the short note but the dinner table discussion was too good to devote to a long TN. But rest assured this should stand next to the 2002 as one of the great vintages of Charme.

What is the drinking window on this vintage? I recently bought a few bottles, but don't plan on drinking them for some time. Will this be a 20 year drinker?
