The Niepoort Bioma Vinha Velha 2013 tells the story of old vines in the Douro. In this Jeroboam, the wine is presented in an exceptional way, but its character begins with the grapes and the origin of the harvest.
Niepoort was founded in 1842 and is known for its unique approach to port and Douro wine. The name Vinha Velha refers to old vineyards, where traditional grape varieties are often planted in blends. This diversity serves as a tangible reminder of the Douro’s winegrowing heritage.
2013 was not a widely celebrated Vintage Port year like 2011. Nevertheless, Niepoort chose to bottle a Bioma Vinha Velha. This underscores the importance of the individual vineyard and the selection of grapes. The wine combines a core of ripe fruit with structure and has the potential to continue developing during bottle aging.
Dark berries, plums, floral notes, and subtle spices can define the bouquet. Over the years, more complex notes of dried fruit and spices may develop. A large bottle may evolve more gradually under similar storage conditions, though the condition of the bottle remains the determining factor.
The Jeroboam contains five liters of port and requires special care when opening and pouring. Store the bottle in a cool, dark place, stand it upright beforehand, and decant carefully if necessary. Serve slightly chilled. This port pairs beautifully with blue cheese, but is also worth savoring on its own.
