Niepoort Junior Ruby

Niepoort Junior Ruby

Scent: Notes of fresh young fruit and lots of intensity.
Taste: Full-bodied and nicely rounded with notes of dark plums, blackberries and hints of dark chocolate. The Junior Ruby is a fresh port wine with an elegant balance between nicely integrated tannins and dark ripe fruit.

Server for: Niepoort The Junior Ruby is an obvious companion for cheese and chocolate desserts or the cheeky choice for a pepper steak.

Serving temperature 12-14°C.

The port wine:

The grapes for The Junior Ruby are harvested manually at the end of September and the beginning of October. At harvest, the grapes are fully ripe and of extremely high quality. The vines from which the grapes are harvested have an average age of 30 years. The vinification is traditional. The majority of the grapes are trodden, by both men and women, with their feet in "lagares" (low granite vessels) to start the fermentation. When the must has achieved some alcohol in the fermentation process (approx. 4%) but still possesses large amounts of natural sweetness, grape spirit is added and fermentation is stopped. This creates a port wine with an alcohol strength of approx. 20% and a wine with a relatively high residual sugar content. The wine is then brought to Niepoort's warehouses in Vila Nova de Gaia by the Douro River, where the wine is stored for 3 years in large oak barrels to preserve as much young fruit and freshness in the wine as possible.

Wine house:

Niepoort has been run by the family for five generations. As the latest, Eduard Dirk Niepoort took over the company in 2005 when his father retired. In order to preserve the spirit and style of the wine, it has always been aimed for two generations to work together in the company. Dirk has been with the company since 1987, and from the start he has had his own visions, which were awakened during his time as a student in e.g. Switzerland. Dirk wants to keep the style of the house and improve things at the same time. The production of Niepoort's famous classic port wines, which are of high quality, can be traced back to 1842, when the company was founded, and it is precisely the old traditions that Dirk would like to keep at the same time as he wants to develop the products.

Niepoort sources its grapes from its own vineyards as well as from a number of small winegrowers in the Douro Valley. Here, the vines grow on terraced hillsides, where the soil primarily consists of slate, and the climate is characterized by long hot summers, sparse rainfall and a cool wind from the sea that helps keep the grapes cool until early in the morning. All factors that help to ensure perfectly ripe grapes with lots of intensity and typicality.
