Bottled in 2004. The nose is lovely with some dried cherry, caramel, and praline. Smooth on the palate, full of elegance and finesse. Great balance. A hint of orange peel on the finish.

24 hours later this shows very well. Great mouth feel with very nice acidity. There is some tannin showing on the finish. 93 points

This was the only Niepoort of the tasting. Based on this one example, I will have to seek out more of their Colheitas.
