Refreshing! Tropical, boxwood, tight acid — a year ago
2016 vintage. Dirk Niepoort's answer to Burgundy and it actually has a Pinot Noir like colour and mouthfeel. This is a very unusual Douro from very old vines. Delicate nose with sour cherries , pomegranate and flowers. It is all about finesse and subtlety. Very long. Delicious and expensive (80 euros), but if you see the prices of Portuguese high end wines these days it almost seems a bargain. — 3 years ago
Sweet, but not sugary. Really refreshing. — 2 months ago
Fines bulles frisantes pas un léger gaz carbonique, jaune paille, reflets verts. Une salade de fruits au nez, litchi, pêche, fruits exotiques. Une bouche piquante par le résiduel de gaz carbonique. La finale est sucrée. Il doit être bu très froid car en se réchauffant le sucre prend le dessus ce qui agresse et rend ce vin d'apéro et de terrasse perdre tout son charme. — a year ago
Loooove this one. Notes of salted caramel. Might have been the weed and hot tub talking though... — 2 years ago

Lovely, no bricking on the edge so it’s not really showing age. Nose is a bit hot still but very fitting the 09’s. It’s secondary for sure on the palate with fruit not overpowering but balanced in with the leather and cedar. Very good for the price point, it is in a good place now. — 2 years ago

Plenty of stuffing here, more than most Bourgogne blanc from over the hill. — 16 days ago
