2013 Niepoort Bioma Vinha Velha Vintage

£105.00

Introducing 2013 Niepoort Bioma Vinha Velha Vintage - a highly esteemed addition to our portfolio. This Vintage pays homage to the "terroir" and the golden age of Port Wine, with a special vineyard (Vinha da Pisca) in the heart of Douro. Managed biologically and carefully selected, this vintage offers a taste of the past, similar to the English bottled Port Vintages of the 1970s. With majority of vines over 80 years old, Bioma "Vinha Velha" is truly a Vintage from a single vineyard.

2013 Bioma Vinha Velha Vintage was aged in traditional 550l casks in a cool Douro cellar, resulting in an exceptionally complex wine. This vintage was harvested in ideal weather conditions and fortified with vínica brandy before resting in barrels over the winter. The delayed growing season and unique aging process truly make this luxury wine stand out.

Tasting Note: A deep purple color, accompanied by a rich purple rim. Over time, the wine has gained in color, but in aroma, the exuberant young fruit, very evident after its first winter, has become more closed off, though still present on the palate with plums and blackberries. Firm, grainy tannins in the medium palate.

Origin: Douro Valley, Portugal

Blend: Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinto Cão, Tinta Francisca, Tinta Amarela, Sousão, Touriga Nacional

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.
