More aroma than the 2010 Niepoort Coche Branco, and showing a little depth too. Medium bodied, easy to drink and fairly smooth. Nice finish that carries for a while. Later there was a little spice too. 91 points.

I liked this a little bit more than you did, and am a big fan of this particular bottling, although I've had a few better vintages ... but the jury is still out until about 2018 when this will start to really deliver the goods. For example, the 2005/2006 pairing is just entering its wheelhouse, even thought they were both excellent (but oaky) when young.
