Redoma Tinto Niepoort, organic wine, unfined, unfiltered, full yet supremely elegant Douro red, beautiful poise and freshness, fruit picked early. Exclusively from Quinta de Nápoles vineyards whose vines are quite young, with an average age of 25 years. A minimal intervention wine with a short maturation period in an old wooden wine vat which had previously been used for Port. The end result is a pure wine without too much influence from the oak, but with firm and elegant tannins. Dark fruits on the palate such as currants, cherries and damson with subtle aged notes from the oak ageing.
