Winemaking:
This vintage continues Niepoort tradition to create balanced ports with great concentration but simultaneously fine and delicate. At Niepoort’ we predict that this vintage will be one of the finest in decades… Vinification: In 2003 the harvest had very hot days and also very humid days. The production was high but with small grapes that produced concentrated tannins and colour. Overripe and dry grapes were taken out to reassure the finesse of the wine. Vinha da Pisca, (very old vineyard), with notes of coffee and black berries gave the final blend the desired finesse. In September 2005 the cycle for Niepoort Vintage 2003 was completed and now the wine ages in the final bottle, (32000 bottles of 750ml).
Food Pairing:
Perfect with “Queijo da Serra”, a Stilton or other blue cheeses. Egg based desserts with “pão de ló” (Portuguese sponge based cake).
Reviews and Awards:
Empowering adults to make a lifetime of responsible alcohol choices as part of balanced lifestyle
