2022 Niepoort Navazos Blanco Jerez

£24.00

A Unique White Wine Collaboration: Portugal & Spain

 

Experience the finesse of a white wine crafted from the finest Palomino Fino grapes sourced from an esteemed Albariza vineyard in Jerez de La Frontera, Spain.

This exceptional wine is made using traditional methods dating back 200 years, with fermentation in "bota" barrels and aging under a delicate "flor" veil for eight months. A perfect blend of tradition and innovation, this wine is a true work of art.

The grapes underwent a gentle pressing before being fermented with natural yeasts in traditional American oak barrels known as "bota." Due to the small size of the 600 L tanks, the temperature was naturally regulated. After aging for 8 months on the lees under a layer of "flor," the wine was filled to 5/6 of barrel capacity to encourage yeast growth.

Tasting Note: Navazos-Niepoort 2020 is a wine with an unusually fruity character of citrus and apricot, marked by aging under "flor." With typical Jerez aromas such as limestone and chalk dust notes, it's a wine full of character, vibrant, fresh, and with surprising acidity. Full-bodied yet not heavy, dry but not aggressive, it's an incredibly food-friendly wine.

Niepoort

Experience the independent family business, passed successfully for five generations from one Niepoort to the next, with older and younger generations working side by side for a long period. We eagerly anticipate the sixth generation, ready for a future of close collaboration.

Dirk Niepoort, part of the fifth generation, leads the family business, following the retirement of his father, Eduard Rudolph Niepoort. Since his studies in Switzerland, Dirk has been passionate about wine and has brought innovation to the traditional Niepoort brand.

Niepoort strives to maintain its status as a "niche player" by crafting unique ports and Douro wines that blend centuries-old customs with modernity. This combination also encompasses wine from two other regions, the Bairrada and Dão, which have contributed to shaping the Douro - Bairrada - Dão triangle. The newest points in this triangle also "deliver the goods" and hold a significant place for Niepoort, as they possess immense potential by combining the rich heritage of Portugal's winemaking history with the potential for innovation.
