2021 Niepoort Tiara

£42.00

Discover Tiara: A Complex Old Vine White

Tiara originates from vineyards over 60 years old, nestled at an altitude of 600 meters, predominantly featuring the Rabigato grape variety. It embodies finesse, lightness, and exudes both strength and vitality.

After carefully selecting grapes from the vineyard, they were gently transported to the winery where further sorting occured. Next, the grapes were pressed delicately into stainless steel tanks, where the must underwent cold settling. The must was then transferred to Foudres, large oak barrels that are aged over 30 years and have capacities ranging from 1500L to 3000L. Here, the must underwent spontaneous fermentation for approximately a year (both alcoholic and malolactic) under ambient temperature control.

Tasting Note: Experience the elegant purity and unique character of Tiara, a premium white wine crafted from carefully selected grape varietals and terroir. Through extended fermentation in aged Foudres, each sip reveals a subtle yet complex bouquet of citrus, orchard fruits, and an herbal essence. Delight in the structured, smooth mouthfeel and lingering acidity on the finish, elevating this wine to a truly sophisticated level.

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.
