Niepoort Ten Year Old White Port

Learn More About This Wine

An individual and distinctive White Port, made for the first time by Niepoort as a result of the exceptional quality of a few parcels of old White Ports. Presents a classic style due to the long oxidative ageing process and the extended skin maceration. 

The white grapes undergo a long period of skin maceration and are foot trodden. Following the addition of grape spirit, the White Ports spent a year in large oak vats, followed by ageing in traditional oak pipes for a period of between 7 and 15 years. Prior to bottling, a selection of the best White Ports is made and the resulting wines are blended. 

Golden in colour, complex aroma of dried fruits dominated by orange peel and dried figs, as well as walnuts and roasted almonds. A floral touch completes the aroma. On the palate it is very fine with a superb structure, the vibrant acidity balancing its sweet character. 

Serve chilled as an aperitif. Alternatively appreciate it with desserts or on its own at the end of a meal.
