While several notable Scots and English families (Graham, Warre and Taylor, for example) emigrated to the Douro valley in the 18th century, others from Port-importing countries did likewise, and the Niepoorts arrived from the Netherlands.
Niepoort Vintage Port has a style that can be appreciated when very young, though as it matures, the wine soon closes up and becomes as long-lived as any.
Dirk Niepoort deserves the accolades he receives for his hard work, though this also means the company's wines have become increasingly scarce.
1963 was a monumental Vintage of legendary proportions! 1963 was one of the 20th Century's finest Vintages and is the one against which, all others are judged. Declared by all the major Port houses. Power, dimension and real character, are all characteristics of this most memorable Vintage. Even after nearly 40 years the best wines never fail to impress with their essential three components of fruit, tannin and elegance. Almost always appear to be younger than they really are.
