Re-tasted from magnum. Still lovely. Very cool and fresh. Lively and transparent. See earlier note in my report on Douro wines. (JR)

Very seductive nose. Slightly oaky. Sweet and certainly burgundian, with lots of tannin still on the finish. Very gentle and flattering. A very serious wine, especially for this vintage. Niepoort’s attempt at a Douro burgundy. No de-stemming, 18 months in French oak. The quest for the perfect vineyards for this fascinating wine continues apparently. (JR)
