Dark red with crimson it shows itself in the glass. The Niepoort Fabelhaft Tinto is a complete entry level wine. It exudes aromas of red berry fruits with balsamic notes. On the palate it is well structured, fresh and lively with mineral nuances. Full-bodied, elegant, good depth, lively acidity, medium-long finish with velvety, well-integrated tannins, warm and soft on the palate. A perfect introduction to the Niepoort wine world! The names Charme, Batuta or Redoma make wine experts worldwide go into raptures. Dirk Niepoort, actually head of one of the finest port wine houses, has placed himself at the top of Portuguese viticulture within a few years. With his straightforward, idiosyncratic manner, he has offended many traditionalists.
The pleasurable experience of the raven Huckebein and its fatal end, magically described by Wilhelm Busch, was chosen by Niepoort for Fabulous. Since animal stories are also called "Fabel", the wine bears the name "Fabelhaft". And it tastes like that! "Fabelhaft" shows all the strengths of a classic Douro wine such as deep fruit, lively acidity and ripe tannins. At the same time, however, it is already a pleasure to drink in its youth. Balance and drinkability are its essence.
