Charme 2015, Niepoort, Douro, Portugal
£75.00
Niepoort are one of the top Port houses and fifth generation winemaker Dirk Niepoort also now makes what are widely considered Portugal’s best table wines (ie. not Port). The grapes are mainly Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz – typical of the Douro. Whilst some of his top wines are big, powerful wines, Charme, coming from very old vineyards, is always more elegant in style; more reminiscent of great Burgundy. Lovely with game dishes and anything mushroomy.
