Quinta De Baixo Merlot Tinto

Description

This Niepoort Baixo Merlot is a truly distinguished wine, boasting a colour that speaks of perfect ripeness and a nose brimming with red fruit, underscored by a subtle leather note – a whisper of an old knight’s armour, perhaps. On the palate, it’s a firm yet elegant wine, beautifully balanced by acidity and the unmistakable character of the Merlot. The finish is remarkably long and persistent, with a lovely mineral edge hinting at the granite soils of the Bairrada – ideal with a hearty roasted beef.
