NiePOoRTland Dry White Rabbit Port Half Bottle
Niepoort have been making wines and ports in the Duoro Valley since 1842, the business being passed through five generations. For the White Rabbit Dry White, grapes are left on the skin for some time, before the addition of pure grape brandy after fermentation. It is aged for at least 3.5 years in small old oak casks.
White Rabbit Dry White Port has aromas of nuts and almonds which follow through to the palate balanced with lemon and citrus notes. Best served chilled as an aperitif or as a long drink with Tonic Water, ice and a twist of lemon. A smaller bottle that’s perfect for just a little tipple!

NiePOoRTland Ruby Dum Half Bottle
Niepoort have been making wines and ports in the Duoro Valley since 1842, the business being passed through five generations. The Ruby half of the Niepoort ‘twins’ is a classic rich Ruby, with assertive bright primary fruit.
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 cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia. Pairing well with dark chocolate desserts, cheddar, gouda and brie cheeses. A smaller bottle that’s perfect for just a little tipple!
Niepoort LBV Port Half Bottle
Niepoort have been making wines and ports in the Duoro Valley since 1842, the business being passed through five generations. Ancient vines, hand picked and 100% foot trodden and fermented in the circular granite lagares at Vale de Mendiz. This wine ages 4-6 years in large old oak vats (opposed to Vintage, that ages 2-3 years). LBV fills the gap between the rubies and the vintage ports since a Ruby Port should be drunk quite young and a great Vintage Port may need 15 to 20 years to really open up and show its splendour.
Lots of fruit characters, mainly forest fruits with dark chocolate aromas and a slight spicy note, someacidity provides a great freshness. Drinking beautifully now but this will also benefit from cellaring for a couple of decades. This pairs well with chocolate desserts, cheddar and brie cheese as well as rich red meats or game. A smaller bottle that’s perfect for just a little tipple!

Niepoort Senior Tawny Port
Niepoort have been making wines and ports in the Duoro Valley since 1842, the business being passed through five generations.

The most traditional format of bottle and a moustache has been used to emphasis the seniority.
The Senior Port has a velvety mouth feel produced from blending old wines with younger wines to balance richness and freshness. This Tawny is a good match with cheeses and chocolate based desserts. It can also be drunk as an aperitif, served at room temperature or slightly chilled.
Niepoort Crusted Port
Niepoort have been making wines and ports in the Duoro Valley since 1842, the business being passed through five generations. The majority of this Crusted Port bottled in December 2015 comes from various vineyards around the Niepoort winery in Vale de Mendiz, where the base wines were destined for high quality Vintage Ports. The Crusted Port complements the Niepoort Vintage and Late Bottled Vintage style, but not finied or filtered prior to bottling and is released three years after bottling.
Drinking beautifully now with aromas of cherries and dark plums along with a fine minty, liquorice aroma. On the palate, well integrated tannins dominate along with superbly evolved fruit and good length.This is amazing with Cheddar, Stilton, or even chocolate!
