Niepoort Redoma Reserva Branco 2023
Douro Valley, Northern Portugal, PortugalThe Redoma Reserva comes from vineyards which are more than 80 years old, planted in mica-schist soils at an altitude of 600 metres above sea level. Since its first edition in 1995, the main objective in producing this wine has been to reflect the character of the Douro’s old vines. The best barriques were selected for the wine’s maturation in order to guarantee minerality, complexity and ageing potential. Rabigato, Códega, Viosinho, Arinto and others were fermented in French barrique, where it remained for 9 months. There's a lovely reductive thread backboning this wine, drawing green apple, lemon, green fig, and crushed stones along the structured, medium bodied palate, through a lingering flake salt finish. A wine with presence and longevity, drinking beautifully now, and with ample time ahead.Tasted: 25 February 2025Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:ON | $72.00 | 750ml | consignment |
