O Produtor, tasting note published in November 27th 2022

A light grenade hue accompanies delicate aromas of cherries and strawberries with a subtle aroma of old barrels providing a superb, rustic character. In the mouth, primary fruit aromas, especially cherries, with a silky texture complemented by rustic notes from the old barrels, giving the wine structure and a long, refreshing finish.

Niepoort

The grapes were gently crushed with 100% stalks in granite presses, where they were trodden by foot. The most important part of this winemaking process is the pre-fermentative maceration and the start of alcoholic fermentation, where extraction is very rigorous. The Charme initially ferments in the wine press, followed by barrels, where the fermentation ends. The process is completed with racking and ageing in French oak barrels for 15 to 19 months.

Niepoort Vinhos

The Niepoort family has been creating Port Wines since 1842. The first property in Douro was bought in 1987 and Dirk Niepoort started a new Era in the company with the creation of the first Redoma red in 1991. In the last years Niepoort took on the great challenge of interpreting other soils and climates and acquired two properties in other regions, Dão and Bairrada. Discover the Niepoort Triangle which express the different terroirs: Schist (Douro), Limestone (Bairrada) and Granite (Dão).
