2018 Niepoort Quinta de Nápoles organic red
Description
This wine was produced from grapes from old vines at Quinta de Nápoles and has a concentrated ruby colour. The aroma is discreet, with notes of graphite, redcurrant, blackberry and floral nuances surrounded by well-integrated wood. The tannins are very precise, giving the concentrated character typical of Douro reds, combined with the elegance, structure and persistence that are Niepoort's signature, revealing great ageing potential.
On the Portuguese wine scene, there is no more consensual producer than Niepoort, and the long history begins in 1842 with the first Van Der Niepoort arriving in Portugal.
As he started in the Port Wine market as a merchant, he quickly set up his business which would prove to be prosperous and future-proof.
Thus, in the 5th generation, Dirk Niepoort was born, an unavoidable producer in the world of wines, recognised as one of the most important characters who worked, and still works, on behalf of Portuguese wine. He has worked with several dozen producers, helped them to improve their wines and understand their vineyards, while also preparing his legacy with those who are always creating irreverent wines. Nowadays, Dirk Niepoort collaborates on many other projects, in practically all national wine regions and some foreign ones.
