Characteristics Niepoort White

Niepoort White is a white Port wine coupage of Côdega, Rabigato, Viosinho, Arinto, Gouveio and other varieties. It is made by Niepoort.

Niepoort is a Portuguese winery that was founded in 1842. It is currently run by Dirk Niepoort, fifth generation of the family it is named after. They use traditional Portuguese techniques such as grape treading, fermentation in cement tanks or aging in pipes, 550-litre port-aging barrels, whilst also using new technologies that ensure the grapes are handled with care. The winery has vines in different locations, some of which are over 100 years old, and an aging cellar in the town of Vila Nova de Gaia.

The Niepoort White vineyards are about 60 years old. They are planted in shale soils with a density of 4,000 to 6,000 plants per hectare. They are harvested manually to be able to select the grapes in the field and to ensure they reach the winery in the best possible condition.

In the winery, Niepoort White macerates with skins for a long time. As it is fermenting, when the must-wine reaches a point where it contains the right amount of sugars, wine alcohol is added and fermentation is stopped. Finally, the wine ages in small oak barrels for at least 3 years.

Niepoort White is a white Port wine with residual sugars of about one hundred grams per litre. A complex and very structured wine.

Others wines Niepoort

This winery has belonged to the Van der Niepoort since 1848, when it was ceded by Eduard Krebe, who founded it six years earlier. Currently, the company is directed by Rolf van der Niepoort and his son, Dirk, the fifth generation. It is one of the most renowned Portuguese wine companies in the world, both for its quality —only 16 vintages classified as Vintage in 60 years— and for the great personality and inimitable style of its wines.
