2021 Niepoort Napoles Bastardo, Douro, Portugal
$58.00
Bastardo is a grape variety which can be found in the old vineyards of the Douro Valley. Known as “Trousseau” in the French Jura region, it is a variety which has a short growth cycle, ripens early, and is normally used for increasing sugar levels in the musts produced from grapes growing in colder areas. The idea behind this Bastardo was to try to tame the rustic character of the variety and to tease out its elegant and fresh side. - Niepoort
