Sempar Portalegre Tinto 2020, Niepoort
Region: Portugal
Producer: Niepoort
"Sempar" means "unrivaled," "unique," or "incomparable"—a name that perfectly reflects the style of Niepoort’s winemaking philosophy: uncomplicated wines that allow the vineyards of their origin to truly shine.Dirk Niepoort holds the area around Portalegre in the Alentejo in high regard. The elegance and balance derived from the granite and slate soils, combined with the altitude of the Serra de S. Mamede mountains, lend the wines a multifaceted acidity that allows for great versatility.
Sempar: a unique balance between the warmth of the Alentejo and the freshness of the Serra mountains. This wine is light and radiant in color, with a lively and expressive nose featuring hints of citrus blossom and ripe red berries. The palate is soft and refined, offering vibrant freshness and delicate acidity.
