Learn More About This Wine
Nat Cool is naturally “cool and funky”. It represents an innovative concept initiated by Niepoort, in which various producers came together to create light, easy-to-drink wines. In the Vinho Verde region, Niepoort produced a wine typical of the region – a wine which references the “cloudy” wines of the past which were bottled with some residual sugar and fine lees, and therefore re-fermented in the bottle.
This white wine was produced using a minimal intervention winemaking approach and is naturally turbid as it finishes its fermentation in the bottle. It is intentionally not clarified, and the colour presents lemon yellow hues with subtle hints of green. Its aromas are of yeasty notes, hints of citrus, peach, and herbaceous. The palate boasts outstanding acidity, a delicate spritz which renders it vibrant and some saline flavours on the finish. This is an intentionally uncomplicated wine: lightly shake the bottle before opening and enjoy with traditional Portuguese snacks.
Food suggestions: Petiscos (tapas) = appetisers such as pataniscas de bacalhau (type of codfish fritters), cured sausages, etc.
