1975 Niepoort LBV Port

[Al B.]

Decant: 4 hours - Bottled unfiltered in 1979. Slightly cloudy, very pale orange in colour, only 10% opaque. Unattractive plastic smells on the nose. Neutral - even hollow - entry with some honey and a bit of grapefruit sweetened with brown sugar. Hollow aftertaste, which does evolve into a gentle floral finish. Very underwhelming. 78 points
