|
| Description: Niepoort have created a second style of vintage port - the “Secundum Vintage”. The intention is to offer an approachable Vintage that offers immediate satisfaction yet keeping the balance to age for decades. If we compare them: Secundum would be young, charming, creative and tangible and the Vintage intense, profound, complex and less accessible.

Niepoort Petre's Vintage |
|
| Porto PORTUGAL |
| Style : Port. Colour : Fortified |
| Dominant
Grape : Blend Producer :
Niepoort
|
| Description: For a number of years now, Niepoort have produced a second label Vintage Port - sometimes in fully declared vintages, sometimes not. The Petre's is effectively the "off cuts" of Niepoort's main vintage. This means Niepoort can offer a slightly earlier maturing port, but still with plenty of grip and concentration. Every inch a fine vintage port. Petre's Vintage Port represents an excellent value proposition from an outstanding producer, that is something of a bargain for port drinkers. Whilst drinking beautifully now, it will continue to develop for twenty to twenty-five years after the vintage. There is a very limited production of each vintage, for example 550 dozen cases of the 1997 for the whole world.

Niepoort Vintage Port |
|
| Porto PORTUGAL |
| Style : Port. Colour : Fortified |
| Dominant
Grape : Blend Producer :
Niepoort
|
| Description: Vintage Port must be bottled within two years of the harvest date and be 100 per cent wine from that harvest. Vintage port is different in every phase of it's life. Whilst young it's youthful fruit characters are at the fore, then after 20 years or more the effects of the slow bottle age integration are revealed. Finally after many decades the spirit dominates the wine. Maturation in bottle means that the wine that results has a fruitiness and power which develops because of the traditional ageing vessel, the classic, thick, black port bottle. Best served at the end of a meal with cheese, especially blue cheese. Vintage Port needs decanting.
