Sensory Description:

Pale and slightly cloudy in the glass, the 2024 Niepoort Nat Cool Drink Me Bairrada brims with playful intensity. Aromas of fresh raspberry, strawberry, and cherry leap from the surface, mingling with a handful of earthy funk that grounds its bright fruit core. On the palate, those juicy red notes intertwine with citrus undertones and a delicate peppery spice, creating a lively rhythm of fruit and minerality. The gentle spritz and crisp acidity lift every flavor, carrying them through to a tangy, mouthwatering finish that’s as invigorating as it is delicious.

Winemaker's Background:

Niepoort has long been one of Portugal’s most innovative and boundary-pushing producers, with Dirk Niepoort leading the charge to redefine traditional Portuguese wines through authenticity, minimal intervention, and character. The “Nat Cool” project celebrates simplicity and drinkability, wines made for joy, spontaneity, and community rather than pretense. Each bottling, including Drink Me Bairrada, embodies a commitment to natural energy and unfiltered expression.

Serving Suggestions:

Serve well chilled, ideally around 8°C, and pour generously into a traditional Portuguese malga ceramic cup for the full experience. Perfect alongside fried fish, salty “petiscos,” or anything served by the seaside.

This is not just a wine to taste, it’s one to share, to laugh with, and to remember. Light, fizzy, and full of charm, the 2024 Niepoort Nat Cool Drink Me Bairrada is proof that great wine doesn’t need to be serious to be seriously good.
