1999 Niepoort Late Bottled Vintage Port

[Kurt Wieneke]

from 375 ml. Very nice nose is mainly blackberry with hints of briar, cement, and cinnamon stick. The palate is full-bodied with blackberries up front, followed by some bristling acidity. I would characterize this as a 'cool climate' port in that there are some unripe and ripe flavors mixed together but still in good harmony. 88 pts
