Niepoort Tawny Dee Port / Half Bottle

Priya Sharma - It's fine, nothing special

5/10

Decent enough port but I wasn't blown away. It's smooth and easy to drink, and the alcohol doesn't hit you in the face which is nice. But for a half bottle at nearly £13, I'd probably just spend a bit more and get a full bottle of something else.

Isla McCallister - Lovely little half bottle

Picked this up on a whim from Majestic and really glad I did. For under £13 you get a proper tawny port that actually tastes like it should — nutty, dried fruit, none of that cheap syrupy nonsense. Perfect size for two people after dinner with some stilton.

Luciano Bianchi - Christmas find!

Got this as a stocking filler and it was one of the best things I drank over the holidays. Really well balanced, not too sweet, and goes brilliantly with chocolate and nuts after a big meal. Already ordered a couple more half bottles for next time we have people round.

Andre Dubois - Surprised me honestly

7/10

I'm not usually a port person but bought this for a dinner party and ended up really enjoying it. There's actual depth to it, proper dried fruit and a bit of caramel, and it finishes really cleanly. The half bottle is a smart size too — enough for everyone to have a glass without committing to a full bottle.

Rafael Santos - Good weeknight port

6/10

The wine shop guy recommended this when I said I wanted something for after dinner that wasn't too heavy. He was right — it's lighter than most ports I've had and genuinely easy to drink. Not the most complex thing ever but it does the job well.

Natasha Volkov - Solid tawny for the price

6/10

Niepoort know what they're doing with port so no surprises here. Nice balance between the sweetness and a bit of acidity that stops it being cloying. Would buy again but wouldn't necessarily go out of my way for it.
