In ruby red colour of medium concentration, the Niepoort Lagar de Baixo flows into glass. Expressive, with notes of fresh red fruit. Fresh and very defined aroma, with a very attractive profile. Very fine and mineral on the palate with delicious forest notes. A wine with very present tannins, but with a good volume in the mouth. Fresh and soft with a strong presence, but not exuberant. The finish is refreshing and very long. The typical acidity of the Baga variety in a very balanced whole allows a long and noble ageing in the cellar.

The wine was vinified in traditional Lagares, where fermentation and maceration took place for a total of 5 weeks. The malolactic fermentation was carried out in old barriques (225L), in which the wine matured for 20 months. It was bottled without filtration.
