This iconic red from the Douro Valley offers an exquisite bouquet that captivates the senses. Aromas of delicate violet floral notes interweave seamlessly with rich dark fruits, creating an enticing nose. Fresh herbs add a lively touch, while subtle hints of graphite provide a mineral edge. The presence of vanilla bean imparts a smooth sweetness, complemented by an array of complex spices. On the palate, this wine is structured and complex, showcasing its serious nature. The spicy undertones enhance the depth of flavor, leading to a long and round finish that lingers gracefully, leaving a lasting impression. This Douro red is a testament to the region's winemaking excellence, delivering a sophisticated and memorable tasting experience.
The name Robustus pays homage to the first Douro wine, produced by Dirk Niepoort, Robustus 1990, which was never sold. Since 2004 Robustus has been vinified according to the methods used in the production of traditional wines. The long aging in old wooden barrels imprints maturity, complexity, softens the tannins and gives the wine precision and balance, without losing all its vigor and aromatic freshness. The Robustus comes from our oldest vineyards, facing north, where acidity and tannic structure are high. In an extremely hot region, with the diversity of terroirs and the wisdom of the old vines, it is possible to produce fresh and long-keeping wines.
