Niepoort - 1991 - Colheita - Port - Porto - (Classic, Food Wine, Ager, Dessert Wine, Aparatif, Digestif) - Well, what do you drink after Araujo Estate Syrah? Aged Colheita Port of course! Tasted from 375ml and aged so well in bottle. Classic Port aromas of caramel, cherry, plum, fig, and chocolate. Lucious in the mouth and not a bit hot for a 20+% alcohol wine. Creamy and ripe with bitter spice complimenting sweet black fruit skins. This wine could be kept for an aditional 20 to 30 years or more!!!
Thank you for exploring my wine list with me. Below you'll find only wines I recommend very highly. I don't use scores, but I do catagorize wines as styles: (Agers, Food Wines, Stand Alones, Celebratory Wines, Showpieces, Classics, Moderns). I also offer food pairings as well as glimpses into what I've enjoyed with what. I hope this helps in some small way to increase your enjoyment of wine and food.
About Me
- Eric C. Maczko
- I've been part of Pine Ridge Winery's Culinary Staff for 7 years. In 2003 I took over the Executive Chef Position and have been pairing food and wine together in a creative environment every day since. I am a Certified Sommelier through The Court of Master Sommeliers and hope to gain my Advanced in the coming year. My love of wine, food and literature are the fuel behind this little site and sharing my experience is my gift. Each year I take a little time to craft my own wine, so as to humble myself. It is a pleasure to sample the hard work and dedication of these so many talented wine professionals.
