Niepoort Copo Alegre Vinhas Velhas Tinto 2020

The colour is concentrated. On the nose, it is a serious wine, combining floral notes, red fruits, spices and dried fruits, revealing the complexity of the old vines from which it originates. On the palate, it is structured, fresh and with excellent acidity. It also reveals its youth through the nerve of the tannins.

The Copo Alegre Vinhas Velhas red wine was produced by Adega de Portalegre for the producer Niepoort.

In the national wine scene, there is no producer more consensual than Niepoort and its long history begins in 1842 with the first Van Der Niepoort to arrive in Portugal.

Having started out in the Port Wine market as a merchant, he quickly established his business, which would prove to be prosperous and successful.

Thus, in the 5th generation, Dirk Niepoort was born, an essential producer in the wine world, recognized as one of the most important figures who worked, and continues to work, for the advancement of Portuguese wine. He collaborated with dozens of producers, helping them improve their wines and understand their vineyards, while also paving his legacy with those who are always creating irreverent wines. Today, Dirk Niepoort collaborates on many other projects, in virtually every Portuguese wine region and some abroad.
