The Douro Valley in Portugal is one of the oldest and most iconic wine regions in the world. Located in the north of the country, the region is renowned for its stunning scenery and its production of world-class fortified wines.
The Douro Valley was first demarcated in 1756 and originally applied only to port production. It was extended to include table wine in 1979, with the first glimmer of the region’s potential for non-fortified still red wines appearing when port shippers Casa Ferreirinha launched Barca Velha in 1952. The focus on table wines did not take hold until the 1990’s, following Portugal’s accession to the EU.

Niepoort wines are surprisingly low in alcohol. This particular wine is 12%. The winemaking process is relatively straightforward, with minimal intervention. The fruit-forward profiles of strawberry and cherry are evident, but the wine is not overly complex. Fresh and approachable, Niepoort is a superb premium for those craving a straightforward, easy-drinking wine.

Opulent and dimensional wine with a deep, bold ruby red color. The notes of cassis, blackberry, cedar, licorice, and mint are expertly balanced, whereas the peppery nuances add a delightful depth. The wine's dry, medium-high crispness and high tannins provide a firm structure, though the medium-heavy body and long aftertaste leave a persistent impression.
