Niepoort-Morgadio Da Calçada - LBV Porto 2020

Why we chose this wine
This is a Late Bottled Vintage with the allure of a real Vintage. It is bottled unfiltered after slow maturation. As a result, this wine is not only perfectly enjoyable in its youth, but it can also age elegantly. Amazing value for money.

The producer
Niepoort
Dirk Niepoort's impact on the Portuguese wine landscape can hardly be overestimated. When he took over the helm from his father Rolf in 1990, as the 5th generation of the originally Dutch Van der Niepoort family, it was immediately clear that something was about to happen.
