Niepoort 30 Year Old Tawny Port: Amber Elegance

Devon Marsh — Seriously impressive stuff

8/10

I'm not usually a port drinker but my partner is, so I picked this up for our anniversary. Even I could tell this was a cut above. It's sweet but not in a cloying way, and the finish just goes on and on. The almond and prune notes on the nose are gorgeous. 20.5% and you genuinely can't tell.

Ingrid Holm — Smooth operator

7/10

Had a glass of this at a restaurant and liked it enough to track down a bottle. It's silky and rich without being too heavy, and I love that dry finish at the end — stops it feeling like dessert in a glass. Would I buy it again at this price? Probably not regularly, but it's a proper treat bottle.

Ravi Krishnan — Good but not £180 good

6/10

Tried this at a tasting event and it's nice, don't get me wrong. Really smooth with figs and raisins and a coffee thing going on. But for nearly two hundred quid I expected to have my mind blown, and there are ports at half the price that get you most of the way there.
