1987 Niepoort Vintage Port

Post by Al B. »

Decant: Not Known - Mid red, still quite youthful in appearance; 80% opaque. Slightly hot on the nose with significant VA showing. Soft, sweet fruit on the entry, with a gentle spiciness on the mid-palate; showing plenty of body and fruit. Soft tannins and a nice balancing acidity. Lovely sweet aftertaste and a long spicy finish that is full of sweet blackcurrant cordial and dark chocolate. Very pleasant drinking. Was guessed to be Churchill 1985 by me and W85, D83 by others. 87 points
