Flag of Portugal PORTUGAL

A high-altitude field blend from an 80-100 year-old vineyard. They pick the fruit early and then extract very delicately to capture the greatest elegance and then mature the wine for 22 months in barrels. This has a very fine nose of nicely delineated black fruits. The palate has plentiful super fine ripe tannins giving a silky voile-like feel over a very juicy core. Notably light on its feet with glorious ripe black raspberry fruits and a cool, dark mineral vein. Delicious now but cellaring will unlock greater complexity. 2-9 years.

Niepoort

Niepoort

An independent family business since 1842...sounds familiar! Today it is very ably run by Eduard Dirk Niepoort (known as Dirk), the fifth generation of the family. Dirk took charge in 2005 having worked alongside his father, Rolf, since 1987.

During this time they purchased their first vineyards: Quinta de Nápoles, the site of their brand new state of the art winery, and Quinta do Carril in the Cima Corgo region considered the prime area for port production. Some of the vineyards were replanted and are now 20 years old, and others were retained which are now between 60 and 80 years old. Dirk has been selling table wine since the 1999 vintage and is widely considered to be one of the best producers in the Douro. The Niepoort dynasty appears in safe hands, as Dirks eldest son Daniel joined the business in 2020 and has since been joined by brother Marco and sister Ana.
