Niepoort Batuta Tinto

Description

This Niepoort Batuta is a wonderfully intense wine, born from vines in the Carril, planted north-facing and benefitting from that uniquely concentrated Douro terroir. The meticulous winemaking reveals incredibly fine tannins alongside a surprisingly complex aroma – think ripe plums, red berries, and even a hint of smoked meat. Robert Parker awarded it 96 points, and frankly, it demands a bold pairing, perhaps with a slow-cooked Iberian pork dish to really let its remarkable longevity sing.
