Rótulo

With the mission of respecting biodiversity, we are restoring several old vineyards with white grape varieties in the Dão, going beyond the Encruzado variety, predominant in the region. The White Label is the result of a blend of almost forgotten grape varieties such as Borrado das Moscas, Rabo de Ovelha, Cercial, among others. Without any barrel influence, we created a delicate, light, and harmonious wine, reflecting the granite, very typical of this region.

2020 was a year with a harsh, long winter and very high rainfall. An almost non-existent spring and a very mild summer, with a few days of intense heat. These conditions made disease control and grape maturation somewhat challenging. Once the desired maturity was reached, the harvest began on August 25 and ended on September 24. It was a difficult year, but one that produced wines with good acidity and excellent aging potential. The White Label underwent regular fermentation without any wood influence. Malolactic fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks. Aging takes place in cement tanks.

Ideal with delicate fish, salads, all kinds of white meats, and mild-flavored hard cheeses.

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).
