Robustus 2008 Red Wine

Robustus 2008 has amplitude with the presence of mineral earthy notes; long and vivid, the wine imposes itself on tasting by its freshness and youth than by the weight of its structure which exhibits very polished tannins

Robustus pays tribute to the first wine that Dirk Niepoort made in 1990 with the same name and which was never released. Robustus 2004 was the first harvest

      <p></p><p>Vinha do Carril Red Wine is the Niepoort family's latest iconic wine, from a centenary vineyard that surrounds the Nápoles estate in the upper Corgo. The natural heterogeneity of an old vineyard, the grape varieties that make it up and the stories that have lived through its 100 years of existence, mark its complexity and enhance the Douro as a region capable of producing world-class wines.</p> <p>Vinha do Carril shows displays a pale, bright red hue, with purple glints. On the nose, notes of cherry, rhubarb, fresh herbs, spices, and floral nuances mingle with a subtle smoky character and hints of graphite which lend the wine the typical complexity of a red wine grown in the Douro’s schist soils. The palate showcases Niepoort’s signature elegant structure, freshness and acidity. It finishes long, with an almost spicy note and beautiful elegance and acidity</p>
