Niepoort "Drink Me Kali" Tinto Douro 2023

Stunning. Could pass as vintage port.

A crisp style of white port with essences of walnuts, almonds and a splash of vanilla.

Brick red tawny appearance; a velvety mouth feel with a fine blend of old wines giving richness balanced with younger wines giving freshness and complexity.

Golden in colour, this exhibits a complex aroma of dried fruits dominated by orange peel and dried figs, as well as walnuts and roasted almonds. A floral touch completes the aroma. On the palate it is very fine and balanced, with a vibrant acidity balancing it´s sweet character, interacting with the fortifying spirit to perfection and giving the wine a superb structure.

An unbelievable Douro red - all big powerful fruit, chocolate and earth and dark toffee.
