Niepoort White Rabbit Dry White Port: Rich Heritage in a Glass
Fortified 19.5% ABV ABV NiepoortAbsolutely stunned by this
Picked this up from a port recommendation thread online and wow. The dried fruit and toffee thing is real — it's like Christmas cake in a glass but dry, not sweet. That salty finish is unlike anything I've had before. At £12.25 this is genuinely a steal for something this interesting.
Best port I've had under £15
The guy at my local wine shop recommended this when I said I wanted something different. It's properly complex — figgy, salty, spicy all at once. I keep going back to it. Niepoort clearly know what they're doing and the price point is mad for the quality.
Good but very intense
Got this as a birthday present and it's definitely interesting. Very full-on with the dried fruit and molasses flavours, almost too much for me. I usually go for lighter stuff so this was a bit of a challenge. My partner loved it though so maybe it's just not my style.
Great after-dinner sipper
Bought this for a dinner party and it went down really well with the cheese board. It's rich and warming with a nice almond nuttiness. The 19.5% ABV sneaks up on you though so go steady. Would buy again but maybe not an everyday thing.
