Niepoort Tawny Dee, with an average age of three and a half years, originates from low yielding vineyards in the Cima Corgo region of Douro Valley. The grapes are predominantly trodden in lagares, prior to ageing in small old oak casks at the maker's lodges in Vila Nova de Gaia.
The wine is brick red/tawny in colour, with delicate nutty aromas and a hint of dried fruits. On the palate it's very well balanced with a youthful fruity, luscious character, leading to a long spirity finish.
It pairs very well with hard cow's milk cheeses, such as Coolea, Gruyère and Appleby's Cheshire.

Our standard delivery charge for orders under £50 is £8 to any address in Great Britain on an overnight service. Orders of £50 or more are delivered for free using this service, as are all subscriptions.
Whilst most orders do arrive on the chosen date, we rely on a third party provider and therefore we cannot guarantee delivery dates. Your order may arrive 1 or 2 days either side of your preferred date. This is more likely at very busy times, particularly Christmas.
