1937 Niepoort Colheita Port

Post by Derek T. »

Niepoort's 1937 Colheita - decanted 1 hour
Roy brought this with him from Seattle via San Francisco, Hamburg, Oporto and the Douro. Unfortunately, I don't think it enjoyed the trip as much as Roy did - The wine was slightly cloudy (most likely from bottle shock) and had quite a lot of heat initially which may have benefited from a longer decant time. A very nice wine which I was most greatful to be able to taste but on this occassion it didn't really have the chance to show itself in the best light. I'll just have to find a reason to go to Seattle and taste another one to see how it does over there
