2017 Niepoort Vintage Port Portugal

2017 Niepoort Vintage Port Portugal

€120.00
Grapes Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinto Cão, Tinta Francisca and others. Duoro Valley, Portugal. Producer An independent family business since 1842, through five generations. Tasting notes A wonderful dark purple rim and great depth of colour characterise the wine’s appearance. The aromatic profile is dominated by superb youthful dark fruit. It is powerful on the initial attack, leading into a fresh mid-palate with beautifully seductive flavors of dark fruit. A great combination of power and elegance, ending in a bold, dry, lengthy and slightly green tannic finish. The length and structure of the 2017 vintage promise a long-lived wine with great ageing potential. Scores and Awards 99 - 100 Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
