Niepoort Lagar De Baixo Bairrada
ABV 12%
The huge passion of Dirk Niepoort for Baga variety and the fantastic terroir of the Bairrada region led him to the acquisition of the Quinta de Baixo in 2012. Lagar de Baixo is a classically-styled wine made from a combination of very old vines and younger vines: complex, serious, but with some youth and grip.
Lagar de Baixo is fermented in stainless steel tanks for four weeks before completing its fermentation process in large, used 2500L vats. In these same vats, the wine went through malolactic fermentation and a maturation period of 19 months before it was bottled unfiltered.
The Lagar de Baixo is a versatile wine. Violet glints and an overall lively and bright appearance. The nose has aromas of red fruit such as cherries and red berries, herbaceous and floral notes and spicy hints from the barrel ageing. On the palate, the structure is delicate and very elegant. It finishes long with a lingering acidity.
Serve with game dishes, pork, stews, baked cod, dishes with legumes.
