From Niepoort’s first certified organic vineyard, this blend has a charming and very typical nose with crushed rocks, earth, violets and red berries. But on the palate it feels slightly foursquare, albeit with nice freshness and well defined fruit.
Typically for Niepoort, the oak influence is very light.
What’s lacking is a little complexity and energy.
