Cellar/Tasting Notes
The fruit is sourced from 3 vineyards: Vinha da Pisca, Vale do Pinhao and Ferrao in the Cima Corgo. The average age of the vines is over 30 years old. This tawny is aged for 4.5 years in small casks at the Niepoort cellar in the coastal city of Villa Nova de Gaia. Brick red / tawny in color, 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 spirited finish. Red Blend: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinto Cao, Tinta Francisca, Tinta Amarela, Sousao, Tinta Roriz and others. |
