2000 Niepoort, Port, Portugal

Description

A definite candidate for wine of the vintage. A brooding, velvety nose with hints of violets is followed by an intensely sweet, yet fresh, ultra-rich palate with mineral hints. This is exquisitely balanced with layers of flavour supported by ripe tannins and an extremely long finish. Drink 2010-2035.

About this wine

Niepoort

While several notable Scots and English families (Graham, Warre and Taylor, for example) emigrated to the Douro valley in the 18th century, others from Port-importing countries did likewise, and the Niepoorts arrived from the Netherlands.

Porto

Porto

Rich, saccharine, intensely-flavoured and, at their best, wonderfully majestic and harmonious, these are wines to be savoured on their own, or with a fine chunk of cheese after a meal. Port comes from the stunning Douro region of Portugal, about 50 miles east of Oporto, and is made in two different styles: bottle-aged and cask-aged.
