1912 Niepoort, bottled in 1981. Chestnut brown colour, 70% opaque. Decanted 24 hours. A huge vinagrinho nose, savoury and marmite. Hugely acidic, an element of dried fig with the intense savoury marmite flavour searing across everything else. Rich, and incredibly powerful. Such a wonderful intense finish, persistent and with a terrific, uncompromising aftertaste. Brilliant, almost as good as the 1900. 96/100. Drunk 02-Mar-24.
