2024 Neipoort Redoma BrancoYoung Portuguese white blend at Vinum (Graham’s cellars restaurant). Enjoyed with heirloom tomato salad, clams Bulhão Pato, and whole sole. Fresh, mineral and stone fruits. — 8 months ago
4/26 another really nice rum. Not as smooth as the El Dorado 12 year. Or the Ron Zacapa but really tasty. 90. — 19 days ago
Really nice. Tasted mature, like an old world? Smooth, buttery, leathery. From Ben. — 3 months ago
Served this slightly chilled (12’C?).
Gorgeously fresh and pure dark fruit. Succulent, juicy, still primary….
Tannines and alcohol beautifully blended into the dense and viscous core. Only a slight hint of spice, chocolate and licorice now. Sweetness and freshness in excellent balance. It even feels more fresh than sweet at the moment. Certainly not too heavy nor intense.
This is so forward and yummy and sexy right now… I just don’t miss the complexity it might be lacking at this stage.
Sure, it has a few decades of life left and it could get more cerebral and complex…
But don’t bother. Drink it now! — 4 months ago
Set good at the price. Good tannins — 24 days ago

Even at 13 years this is yet as powerful and robust as in its first years.
Loads of blackfruit and chocolate in the nose and some hints of tar.
In the mouth silky, long and a nice acidity to balance. It benefits btw from decanting as it is way better on day 2. — a month ago
