Tasting notes Niepoort Charme 2023

Red wine Aged in wood. 15 meses en barricas de roble.

Niepoort Charme 2023 is a red wine that unveils the complexity of its grape varieties and old vines. On the nose, it opens with floral aromas, followed by notes of graphite and a backdrop of raspberry and rhubarb. The oak is subtle, balanced with mentholated aromas that add sophistication. On the palate, it impresses with its elegance, precision, and delicate structure, accompanied by excellent acidity. The finish is long, with spicy nuances and remarkable freshness.

About Niepoort Charme

Niepoort Charme is a red wine coupage made mainly with Tinta Roriz and Touriga Franca and other varieties from the DOC Douro made by Niepoort.

Niepoort is a winery that has been making Port wines since 1842. It is run by the Niepoort family who have worked with Noriega to make their wines for many years. Since the very beginning, they have worked to unite tradition with modernity. They use traditional Portuguese techniques such as grape treading, fermentation in cement deposits and aging in pipes, 550-litre port aging barrels, whilst also using new technologies that allow them to take the best care of the grapes. The winery has vines in different locations, some of which are more than 100 years old, and they have an aging room, Serpa Pinta, in the town of Vila Nova de Gaia.

The Niepoort Charme vineyards are very old and are located in the Mendiz Valley, on the banks of the Pinhão River. The soils are shale-based and the strains are between 70 and more than 100 years old. The vines are trained using the Double Guyot and Cordon de Royat systems. They are harvested manually.

In the winery, the Niepoort Charme vintage passes over the selection table and then the entire cluster is gently squeezed. They are placed in stone presses and tread to extract colour and compounds both in pre-fermentation maceration and during fermentation. Fermentation begins in the presses and continues in barrels. Finally, the wine is aged for 15 to 19 months in French oak barrels.

Niepoort Charme is an elegant and balanced wine made in stone presses.
