Niepoort Projectos Riesling 2004
Identified as an Old World Riesling not from Germany very quickly. As Stevie had just come back from Portugal, I suggested Portuguese and 2-3 years old. I remain very proud.
This is one of Niepoort's projects and making Riesling on the Douro may seem a tragedy but it isn't.
Genuinely excellent Riesling of a style I really enjoy. It is not the Germanic power-house type nor the Australian fruity style but something more subtle. Stevie donated another of these to my cellar and I am very grateful.
