Douro Redoma Tinto Niepoort 2015

The wine

A true icon of the domain, this cuvée was the first produced by Dirk Niepoort. It expresses Douro in all its splendour, generous and concentrated. Made from myriad native grape varieties, the wine is pressed by foot then matured for 14 months in French, oak barrels. The result is inimitable!

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.
