Niepoort Tawny Dee, with an average age of three and a half years, originates from low yielding
vineyards in the Cima corgo region of the Douro Valley. The grapes are predominantly trodden in
lagares, prior to ageing in small old oak casks at our lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia. Brick red/tawny in colour, with delicate nutty aromas and a hint of dried fruits.
On the palate, very well balanced with a youthful fruity, luscious character, which integrates well
with a long spirity finish.
