This dry white port from Niepoort Wines is part of the 'Niepoortland' collection, taking inspiration from the Alice in Wonderland story, this 'White Rabbit' compliments the other 'Dum' and 'Dee' ports.
A 4-grape blend made in the traditional style with long skin maceration, occasionally with foot treading in lagares and fermentation to near dryness. The final blend includes different wines aged in old oak casks for an average of 3.5 years.
Golden in colour with umber hues, it shows a delightful aroma of nuts and almonds which comes through on the palate before a fresh, concentrated, spirit finish. Perfect served chilled as an aperitif or as a long drink with tonic water or soda, ice and a twist of lemon. It will also freshen-up mature nutty cheeses.
Founded in 1842, Niepoort Wines is now run by 5th generation Dirk Niepoort. Small in nature, it has built a formidable international reputation for its port and still wines, with demand threatening to outstrip supply.
