Niepoort LBV 2015 aged for 4 to 6 years in large oak vats and vats. Winemaking and aging methods are made from a selection of full-bodied, high-quality red wines from a single year.
LBV Ports fill the gap between Ruby and Vintage Ports, as Rubies should be drunk quite young and a Vintage Port may need 15 to 20 years to really open up and show its splendor
Chocolate desserts.Portuguese Queijo da Serra cheese, Stilton and mature Parmesan where the saltiness of the aged Parmesan balances out the sweet fruit of the LBV
Tasting Notes
Ruby in color, intense aroma of berries, spices, dark chocolate with slight floral profile. Fresh and seductive, with good texture and good volume. Very soft tannins with good acidity, providing a long finish.
Vinification
Harvest occurred during the month of September and after careful selection on the sorting table, the crushed grapes and stems were directly channeled to granite "lagares" and foot trodden prior to fortification.
<p>Garrafeira 1997 by Niepoort is not just a wine; it means by itself quality far above the traditional canons. The tasting offers an unique experience, indeed one that only those who taste and feel can explain. A great mixture of sensations, aromas and flavours with a perfect balance between youth and experience, between the novelty of the fruit and the “good old age” that only long years of ageing can achieve</p>
<p>Vintage Port maintains Niepoort's tradition of making balanced Ports with great concentration, being at the same time fine and delicate.</p> <p>The magic of Vintage Port is different in every phase: as a young wine it captures the youthful fruit characters. Then, after 20 years or more, the effects of the slow bottle age integration are revealed and finally, after many decades, the spirit dominates the wine. Vintage Port is amazing in all the three phases</p>
<p>Niepoort Nat Cool Trudy Ruby Port Wine.<br />It presents m<span style="font-family:Calibri, sans-serif;font-size:11pt;">edium deep ruby colour with slighty exuberant aroma of cherries and dark plums with superb purity of fruit and freshness. On the palate the primary fruit and freshness are very present and superbly integrated with an acid driven seductive backbone of eloquent tannins</span></p>

<p>Colheitas are dated Tawnies aged in small casks. The minimum age requirement is 7 years, but the tradition at Niepoort is to age several more years before bottling. The wine takes on a Tawny hue. Wood and nutty tones are evident on the palate due to the wine’s slow ageing in old casks. Colheita goes well with dry fruits desserts and the portuguese "Leite Creme queimado". As a starter, the combination with foie gras is impressive</p>
<p>Bioma is an ultra-traditional style of Vintage Port. This wine is inspired by the old Vintage Ports from 1970 and before, which were shipped in lodge pipes (550 liters) to England</p>
<p><span>Ruby Dum by Niepoort retains its youthful, strong character, dominated by red cherries and plums with great freshness from ageing in large wooden vats in the cool cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia.
