Vertente,DouroTinto,Niepoort2022EnPrimeur–Caseof6

Only used barrels and stainless steel, this opens with a gorgeous nose of great purity and precision, a mix of brambles and crisp black fruits ? amidst an open, speckled Douro fragrance and some lovely cassis notes. Super depth on the palate, more of that spicy perfume, dark flowers, raspberry, and a crisp tannic bite reminiscent of Cabernet Franc. Lovely balance, delicious! 0-5 years.
