Tiara is a supremely elegant white from 40–100-year-old vines on granite soils at 600m. Its understated perfume and tensile acidity make it a portrait of Douro’s high-elevation purity.

Niepoort’s team selects grapes from granite-based, high-altitude plots. Fermented and aged in large foudres, Tiara showcases the region’s cooling breezes and the age-old vitality of old-vine Rabigato and Cercial. Tiara’s charm is in its restraint and profile: granite freshness, herbal lift, and steely tension converge in a white of rare finesse and freshness in the Douro.

Winemaking: After gentle pressing and cold settling, spontaneous fermentation and malolactic conversion occur in foudres over 12 months, unlocking nuanced herbal and mineral notes.

Pairing Suggestions: Grilled prawns, sea scallops, herb-roasted chicken or fresh garden salad.

Tasting Note: Subtle white blossom and nettle aromas lead to zesty lime, wet stone minerality and a pure, driven finish.

Origin: Douro Valley, Portugal

Alcohol: 12.5%

Caviste

Niepoort’s story began in 1842 along the steep terraces of Portugal’s Douro Valley. What started as a minor port shipper has evolved into a trailblazing family estate that not only masters fortified wines but was the first in the region to champion unfortified table wines. Today, Dirk Niepoort and his team oversee vineyards from Douro’s schist slopes to the cooler heights of Vinho Verde and Dão, combining centuries-old vines with restless innovation.

Their hallmark? A fearless spirit that fuses traditional lagares foot-treading with precise modern fermentations, producing wines of crystalline purity and ageing potential. Whether crafting a rare single-lagares red or an exclusive white from century-old plots, Niepoort wines embody place, authenticity and a passion for pushing Douro’s boundaries.
