Niepoort Colheita Tawny Port 1937 75cl

Winemaking:
After harvesting, the grapes were de-stemmed, crushed and vinified, and there was a careful maceration of the musts in contact with the skins, in order to extract the maximum color, tannins and aromas, complemented by permanent reassembly during fermentation. The fermentation took place in French oak vats at a temperature of 26-31°C until reaching the desired sweetness point. Wine fortification occurred after the addition of the brandy, originating a fortified wine. It has aged in French oak casks since 1937.
