Description

Niepoort is a family company now in its fifth generation and presently managed by Dirk Niepoort. Despite being the second smallest shippers in the trade they are second to none in quality. Already famous for their classic tawny ports, they have now joined the ranks of the great producers of Vintage Port. Reputations take a long time to establish and only when there is a genuine commitment to quality throughout the company is a name made. Ever since he began running Niepoort, Dirk has been relentless in his efforts to improve the winemaking skills of the growers he buys from. He has also been tireless in his search for more top quality grapes, with a particular penchant for the "old and gnarled" vineyards. He is now able to control all the making of his Ports.
"Niepoort is to Vintage Port what Krug is to Champagne. They are both small houses in a world dominated by large competitors but they are producing outstanding wines which very few can match." (James Suckling,
Vintage Port).

Dirk Niepoort's 1997 is a triumph. Vinified traditionally at their showpiece estate, Quinta do Passadouro, and including unusual varieties such as Tinta Amarela, the wine is intense and beautifully concentrated. Copious levels of sweet black fruits on the nose lead to a fruit-basket of flavours on the palate, supported by silky-soft tannins and an opulently sweet finish.
