TN: 2003 Niepoort Vintage Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 12 hours - Young, pitch balck and with a purple rim. Closed on the nose. Sweet in the mouth, but quite closed; angular, acidic and lacking balance. Although there is plenty of fruit, the structure is all over the place. Tons of tannins. A great, floral aftertaste which is full of fruit. This will probably be a tremendous port in a couple of decades. 91 points
