Niepoort & The Sadie Family - Cape Tawny 2008
Niepoort is located in the Douro Valley, in the north of Portugal. The estate has been an independent family business for over 150 years, where five generations have succeeded one another since its founding in 1842 by Franciscus Marius Niepoort, a Dutch immigrant.
The Sadie Family is a family estate located in the Swartland region of South Africa. Before his career as a winemaker and after a period as a surfer, Eben Sadie traveled and worked in several wine regions of the world, including Germany, Austria, Italy, Oregon and Burgundy.
First launched in 2010, the 2008 Niepoort & Sadie Cape Fortified was the vision of two of the world's leading wine producers. It was produced from Swartland grapes under the direction of Dirk Niepoort, one of the main producers of Port. The fortified wine was aged in cigar-shaped barrels, specially imported from Portugal. Today, after 12 years of aging, the same wine is now released as Tawny.
Grape varieties: Tinta Barocca, Grenache, Carignan, Pinotage
