A wine made by Dirk van Niepoort, descendant and head winemaker of the famed port house Niepoort . 

Dirk Niepoort ?I love Baga, it?s my disease, It?s like Nebbiolo in Piedmont or Pinot Noir in Burgundy: it needs the right plot and proper handling in the winery. Baga and Bairrada (the region) are the best combination in Portuguese red.?

Hand picked Baga (grape varietal), 40 to 100 years old vines on from calcareous clay. Fermented with wild yeasts, carbonic maceration in stainless-steel tanks, bottled without any sulphur additions.  

This is not your typical inky, tannic expression of the Baga grape. Instead, you?ll find this light, fruity, juicy, floral and fresh. Red fruits and Mediterranean scrubland.  Super easy drinking, enjoy lightly chilled.
