The red wine Redoma Tinto Douro DOC, vintage 2000 from the winery Niepoort has been rated in 2003 with 94 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the region Douro in Portugal.
Deep dark ruby garnet, opaque core, violet reflections, very complex on the nose, yet discreet and not loud, delicate ethereal notes, very dark, concentrated fruit, accompanied by a fine spiciness that leads back to the grape varieties, very elegant on the palate, the fruit is hinted at, Blackberry and licorice are somewhere in the background, but on the palate there is a fine network of fully ripe tannins, mineral hints, yet it is not angular or hard, a wine that is still a long way from its first drinking peak and has great ageing potential. The silhouette of the magical castle can be seen in the distance, but there is still a long way to go. (Vergeiner, 29.20 EUR)
