Nice red, orange rim. Nose a little spirity. Palate unexciting, bit of orange, pleasant.

Ck60, pale burnished bronze, 10% opaque. Little on the nose. Sweet on the palate, a little caramel initially before a lovely dose of lime acidity cleans the palate. Lime oil aftertaste and a lingering drying finish. Not unpleasant. 86/100.
Top 2025: Quevedo 1972 Colheita, b.2024. Just as good as Niepoort 1900!
