Senior Tawny Port, Niepoort, Douro, Portugal
This is a great example of the Tawny Port style; the wine is aged for an average of 8 years in barrel, during which time, it loses it’s dark red colour and takes on a gorgeous tawny hue. The flavour is amazingly complex, with rich layers of dried fruits and a lovely nuttiness that stops it feeling too sweet. Delicious chilled as an aperitif as well as being a great wine for cheese (washed rind St Cera or creamy Isle of White Blue!)
Niepoort LBV Port
Dirk Niepoort is often lauded as Portugal’s best winemaker, making some of Portugal’s best table wines. However, Port is always at the heart of what he does and year after year, this LBV is one of the very best. Despite it’s power and richness, it stands out from the crowd with it’s real drinkability!
