Niepoort 'Redoma' Rosé 2023

Wild, barrel aged rosé, this is the antithesis of Provencal pink stuff. The light hue in the glass lures you in and the seductive aromas of dried rose petals, cranberries and bonfire smoke keeps you hooked. Fresh on the palate with tart rhubarb and, but with body and texture, this feels immediately full and different. A highly gastronomic Rosé, it's the perfect combination to Oysters, oven baked fish, poultry and light meats.

Niepoort has been an independent family business since its creation in 1842. Today it is led by the fifth generation, Dirk Niepoort, supported by his sons Daniel and Marco. Dirk has been a relentless innovator and creative throughout his time at Niepoort.

One of Dirk’s great initiatives was to focus on the production of spectacular unfortified, table wines showcasing the local, indigenous varieties. He has spearheaded this idea for over twenty years and in the early days was seen as a maverick, when the status quo in the Douro was to focus on port production. A futuristic winery was erected at Quinta de Napoles in 2007 and this serves as the centre of the Douro table wine production. Further rare old vines have been acquired in Bairrada, Dão and Vino Verde as Dirk continued his insatiable appetite for new projects and relentless invention. One constant throughout this extraordinary journey is that Niepoort always create wines with a lightness of touch, a supreme elegance and purity, that is so prized by today’s wine enthusiasts.
