Niepoort White Port

Wine information: the Niepoort White port is made from white grapes (Malvasia, Viosinho and Gouveio). The white grapes undergo long skin maceration, occasionally with foot treading in lagares. Following fortification with grape brandy, the wine spends a year ageing in large old oak vats, prior to at least three years in small old oak casks. A classic style of White Port, with oxidative handling and good extract from prolonged skin maceration. Serve chilled as an aperitif but it also goes down a treat as a dessert wine or simply Brilliant golden / brown colour with a fresh nutty aroma and delicate subdued fruit. Medium sweet on the palate, interacting perfectly with the spirit which in turn gives a superb structure to the wine. on its own at the end of a meal.
