Baga von Niepoorts Weingut
Quinta de Baixo, gelegen in der
D.O.C. Bairrada,schreibt nachfolgend im Original:
„The 2013 Poeirinho was aged for 20 months in old Mosel fuders (2500 L). It was sourced from vines ranging from 80 to 150 years old. It is pretty much a monster Baga, fuller in the mouth than most, elegant and yet very powerful, with that typically fine acidity strafing the fruit and beautiful tension on the finish. For all that, it holds its balance beautifully. This is a long haul, big-time Baga. Give it a few years to settle down at the least. You won't have to worry about it falling apart for a long time, perhaps longer than I even think (...). Drink 2017-2035”
