Douro Redoma Reserva Branco Niepoort 2020

The wine

From old vines situated at high altitudes, the grapes have had all the time they need to mature, preserving impressive levels of acidity that give this wine its crisp character after maturing for a few months in French, oak barrels. Without any heaviness, this wine is full of vivacity, with oaky and mineral notes that are well-integrated.

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.
