12- Niepoort:
This one was the darkest one of the tasting. The nose was a bit muted and had a bit of heat. But you could still sense there was something there. It was rather dry and chalky compared to the others and seemed kind of thin. Not sure if this was a bad bottle or just really young and disjointed. Had a long finish with a lot of heat and tannins. Now I think this is just super young and really disjointed right now. I feel this one will need a really long time to come around. But when it does I think it will be great. (By default Croft was the only one I had not yet picked).
