Niepoort Sempar Red 2017

Winemaking

The large majority of the grapes was destemmed. Fermentation took place in concrete amphorae in which the wine also aged for 36 months, without too much extraction.

Tasting Notes

An exuberant nose offers deeply expressive fruit. However, this is not just a fruit-driven wine, it also possesses tremendous freshness and an impressive bouquet. The Sempar has structure and balance, underscored by pronounced acidity as well as tannic precision. The very long finish points towards excellent ageing potential.
