About the producer
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.
About the wine
A rare Douro gem, this wine is the perfect example of the finesse and elegance that can be achieved by Dirk Niepoort. It is matured for 16 months in French oak barrels. Its tannins are well-integrated and its blackberry aromas are delicious.
