Niepoort 20 Years Old 37,5 cl
Descrizione
José Nogueira, Niepoort Master Blender e una delle figure più importanti di Porto, crea questo tawny da diverse annate che invecchiano nelle classiche cantine di Vila Nova de Gaia per circa 20 anni. Durante questi due decenni di invecchiamento ossidativo, il vino si affina, si raffina e si evolve acquisendo deliziosi aromi di frutta secca, frutta disidratata e caramello. Un bouquet armonioso che ha conquistato la critica. Fantastico con un tagliere di formaggi e con dessert al cioccolato e frutta

Recensioni degli esperti
The NV 20 Year Old Tawny Port was bottled in 2016 with a long cork. On first taste, I liked this far more than the 1997 Colheita reviewed this issue (about the same age). This has a bit more weight, a bit more intensity of complex flavors, a hint of brandy and a bit more power. That said, the Colheita stands out more for its texture and freshness. I personally liked the balance a bit better on the 1997, but they are both awfully good and each will justly have their fans. Or, resolve the problem by buying some of each. There's no right answer--and no wrong one. Pricing was not available as of this writing.
Wow. So much pretty toffee, salted caramel and chocolate with candied-plum character. Lightly salty. It’s translucent and vivid. Full-bodied, yet tight and polished with vibrance and regal sense. Medium-sweet. Energetic. Drink now.
