Niepoort Vintage 2003 Port Wine
Vintage Port maintains Niepoort's tradition of making balanced Ports with great concentration, being at the same time fine and delicate.
The magic of Vintage Port is different in every phase: as a young wine it captures the youthful fruit characters. Then, after 20 years or more, the effects of the slow bottle age integration are revealed and finally, after many decades, the spirit dominates the wine. Vintage Port is amazing in all the three phases
