Intense and full-bodied wine with a deep, soft texture. The smell is a vibrant mix of juicy berries, with gentle whispers of earthy undertones. On the palate, the hints unfold with a gratifying evenness of intense fruit, consisting of blackberry and plum, accompanied by a clean herbaceous note and a acidic balsamic finish.

Intense and full-bodied wine with a deep, rich fruit profile, expertly consistent with a round vanilla finish.

What the web is saying

Niepoort Douro Twisted Tinto is praised for its rich, full-bodied character with complex fruit flavors like blackberry, plum, and cherry. Some enjoy its smooth vanilla and oak undertones, while others find it lacks complexity. The wine's earthy and herbaceous notes, along with a medium dry finish, are appreciated. Opinions vary on its aging potential, with some recommending decanting to enhance its flavors.

Voss Experts4.0

Niepoort Douro Twisted Tinto offers a lively and enticing nose of red and black fruits, such as raspberry, blackberry, and plum, complemented by floral notes and a touch of spice. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and elegantly structured, with a juicy array of red fruit flavors, hints of licorice, and a subtle minerality. The wine is well-balanced, with smooth tannins and a refreshing acidity that leads to a bright and persistent finish. The integration of fruit, spice, and oak is seamless, making Twisted Tinto a delightful and versatile wine,
