In the Douro (3) Niepoort

dirk niepoort

Dirk Niepoort needs no introduction. For me, this is the Douro’s most exciting winery (it’s one of the world’s most exciting wineries, for that matter). Dirk says that in 2013 he made some radical changes and ‘pressed a re-set button.’ The wines, already excellent, have taken a step forward with the 2013s. And 2014s from cask/tank are looking extremely exciting. We also got a look at the Conciso 2012 (Dao) and Poeirinho 2013 (Bairrada), which are truly lovely. Buy the Redoma 2013 (stunning value: a proper expression of Douro) and the Turris 2013 (breathtaking), and you will be very happy.
