Dao Rótulo Tinto Niepoort 2020
12%
0.75L
Intensity
An elegant wine with floral notes that expresses a range of berry aromas, enhanced by a long, perfectly balanced finish.
More infoThis cuvée is made from native Portuguese varieties like Alfrocheiro Preto, Laén, and Touriga Nacional and reflects the breadth and complexity of the terroir. Each plot is carefully and meticulously worked so that the terroir can be savoured in the most authentic way possible. The grapes are harvested at peak maturity and carefully sorted before being destemmed. After fermenting in stainless-steel tanks, the wine matures for around 12 months in cement vats before being bottled without filtering.
The intense red colour opens to a vibrant nose, with floral notes and hints of wild berry, mixed with subtle aromas of mint. The intense berry aroma balances perfectly with a beautiful acidity, for a long, fragrant finish. This cuvée can be enjoyed young and can also evolve nicely after several years of cellaring.

About the Producer Niepoort
Recognised across the world for his Port, Dirk Niepoort manages this 62-hectare domain in the sumptuous Douro domain. Once he took over the family domain in 1987, Niepoort set himself the great challenge of growing his own vines, whilst his family had always bought grapes from elsewhere. This was a success: his dry wines are now as sought-after as his Port. Why? They are especially classy, with a surprising finesse for the region.
