Production Details December 2021 bottling: grapes were hand-picked in September/October, foot-trodden with 100% stems in lagares, and aged in large old wooden vats in Niepoort's Vila Nova de Gaia cellars. Vineyard density was 4,000 vines/ha with Guyot and Royat training. The wine is selected from two or three vintage-quality harvests and released three years after bottling. Niepoort & Freunde separately lists acidity of 4.1 g/L without specifying its analytical basis, so that figure is not treated as total acidity.
Tasting Notes Deep, bright dark-red rim; aromas of cherries and black plums with mint and liquorice; well-integrated tannins, ripe fruit and a lingering finish.
Food Pairing Chocolate desserts, especially dark chocolate; Cheddar, Gouda and Brie; spicy red-meat or game dishes, lamb, veal and pepper steak.
