A fresh, elegant Dão white crafted from century-old vines on granite soils, delivering remarkable clarity and poised finesse. Expressive with notes of stone fruit, lime zest and layered with butter and vanilla bean from clever oak treatment. On the palate the wine is mineral and fine with a spicy and earthy complexity. A testament to the aging potential of great Dão whites. Niepoort has been an independent family business since its creation in 1842. Today it is led by the fifth generation, Dirk Niepoort, supported by his sons Daniel and Marco. Dirk has been a relentless innovator and creative throughout his time at Niepoort. One of Dirk’s great initiatives was to focus on the production of spectacular unfortified, table wines showcasing the local, indigenous varieties. He has spearheaded this idea for over twenty years and in the early days was seen as a maverick, when the status quo in the Douro was to focus on port production. A family-owned winery with a long history of producing high-quality wines.
