2007 colheita, bottled in 2022. You can't go wrong with Dirk Niepoort's colheitas and this freshly bottled 2007 is a beauty. Niepoort colheitas are typically bottled after minimum 10 years in barrel (the legal minimum being 7 years) and the first bottling for this 2007 took place in March 2018. While they won't go bad in bottle, you might as well get them as fresh as possible. Brilliant tawny colour. Wonderful aromatics with candied fruits, orange peel, salted caramel and coffee. In the mouth it is amazingly fresh, with bright acidity balancing the dried figs and plums and the refined tannic backbone. Impressively long finish with candied orange, dark chocolate and coffee. A beautiful meditation wine and exceptional value. Abv. 18,9%.

What a treat straight from the barrel in Niepoort’s Gaia lodge! It danced on the tongue.

The Portugese like to keep these vintage tawnys for themselves. Like a regular 10 year tawny, but with more zip and intrigue.
