Niepoort Nat'Cool Drink Me Bairrada Tinto

Since its founding in 1842, Niepoort has remained an independent family enterprise. Currently in its fifth generation led by Dirk Niepoort and supported by his sons Daniel and Marco, Niepoort's been tireless innovators and a creative force in the Portuguese wine scene. 

A recent innovation has been the development of the Nat-Cool range which is Dirk’s take on natural wines with his own rules:

1. No rules
2. Respect the first rule
3. Less is more
4. Cooler = less extraction, less alcohol, less mess
5. Authentic, organic, cool attitude
6. One litre bottle
7. Cool price
8. The incredible lightness of being

In the Bairrada region, Niepoort produced DrinkMe, the inaugural Nat Cool wine, which aims to highlight a different and elegant facet of the Baga grape variety. This incredibly light and accessible wine invites effortless enjoyment. 

Tasting Notes: Showcasing Baga's playful character with its light and vibrant appearance. The nose offers fresh floral aromas, intertwined with notes of aromatic herbs and cherry fruit. On the palate, it presents a delightful balance of roundness and crispness. The finish is marked by a refreshing acidity, spicy notes, and a subtle sweetness with a hint of astringency, making it approachable and endearing. Best enjoyed chilled for a naturally cool experience. Enjoy with natural and simple dishes as well as comfort food.
