(12/2023) What an incredibly delicious and unique wine! Basically, it is an unfortified, flor-impacted sherry-like white featuring nervy acidity and complex flavors of almond butter, honey, yellow flowers, beeswax oxidative accents and a never-ending finish. Only 12% alcohol; try this distinctive white with lobster bisque!

(9/8/2023) The 2020 Navazos-Niepoort is still quite young and a little fruit driven. 2020 was a low-yielding year with a wet summer (lots of botrytis in Sanlucar, but not in Jerez). This is a lighter vintage, with less grip (and without the two extra years in bottle the 2018 that I tasted next to it has). These might seem like light wines, but they age much better than we all expected, and the quality of the vintage is easier to see after years in bottle. The first vintage, the 2008, is still going strong today. 5,000 bottles produced. Drink Date: 2023 - 2028.
