Description
Dirk Niepoort has produced a truly outstanding 2007; aromatically this is a delight, an over-flowing fruit-basket of indulgence. No change of tempo on the palate, which combines eucalypt, Seville orange and macerated cherries. Sweetness and tannins are harmoniously entwined; the wine crescendos wonderfully then lingers endlessly.

About this wine
Niepoort
While several notable Scots and English families (Graham, Warre and Taylor, for example) emigrated to the Douro valley in the 18th century, others from Port-importing countries did likewise, and the Niepoorts arrived from the Netherlands.

Porto
Rich, saccharine, intensely-flavoured and, at their best, wonderfully majestic and harmonious, these are wines to be savoured on their own, or with a fine chunk of cheese after a meal. Port comes from the stunning Douro region of Portugal, about 50 miles east of Oporto, and is made in two different styles: bottle-aged and cask-aged.
