Niepoort Secundum Vintage 1999

Notes - Dirk Niepoort has created this second style of vintage port called “Secundum Vintage”. The Secundum’s intention is to provide an approachable Vintage that offers immediate satisfaction yet is well-balanced enough to age for decades. The 1999 Vintage gave rise to some very well structure Ports with almost ideal ripeness. It has not been a "fully declared" year but small parcels of top quality Vintage Port have been bottled by most shippers. Secundum 99 is one of these combining power and the finesse. The fruit is seductive and the flavours inticing with a firm, but fine, structure. Could be enjoyed in 10 –12 years time but will also keep well beyond 2020.
