Learn More About This Wine

Niepoortland twins: Ruby Dum and Tawny Dee. identical sibling born in Douro. With time, Ruby Dum retains its youthful, strong character, dominated by red cherries and plums with great freshness from ageing in large wooden vats in the cool cellar of Vila Nova de Gaia. With time, Tawny Dee acquires great wisdom and subtleness through ageing in small oak casks exhibiting discrete characters of dried stone fruits.

The wine originates from low yielding old vineyards in the Cima Corgo region of the Douro Valley. The grapes are predominantly trodden in Lagares, prior to ageing in large wooden vats at the lodge in Gaia and bottled with an average of three years.

Dark red in colour with a fresh vibrant aroma of dark fruits which follows through on the palate along with an almost mineral character, a youthful wine with good extract and great balance, offering superb “drinkability”. Ready to drink now, after a meal on its own or with soft cheese such as brie, or a cheddar/gouda. It also pairs wonderfully with chocolate desserts, especially dark chocolate.
