Quinta de Nápoles, a 74-acre vineyard on an isolated hilltop overlooking the Tedo River, is a beautiful winery owned by the Niepoort Family. Visitors are welcome to enjoy cellar tastings of both their red wine made from the grapes of old port vines as well as numerous port wines themselves. Luís Seabra, the resident winemaker, often leads small groups on tours among the barrels, pulling out batches from various vintages to taste.
QUINTA DE NÁPOLES was purchased by Niepoort in 1987. The Quinta includes nearly 30 ha of vineyard. The vines are at an altitude of 180-250m and the age varies between 18 and more than 70 years. Located at the left margin of the Têdo river, this is were Niepoort makes their red, white and rosé wines. Since 1987 Maria José and Sr. Manuel live at the Quinta. Maria José is the cook for the many occasional visitors and for the team. Wines and vineyards of Niepoort and all Douro operations is in charge of Luís Seabra, with the help of Maria Gil in Laboratory, António Fonseca in the Winery and Gabriela Santos in the office.
The Niepoort Cellars are located in Rua Serpa Pinto, Vila Nova Gaia. Surrounded by many other port wine cellars, this is the magical space where the old Niepoort wines age in old casks, bottles or demijons… Masterblender José Nogueira joined his father also named José Nogueira at the age of 14 and in September 2006 José Rodrigo Nogueira (his son) integrated the Niepoort team maintaining this very special tradition of Nogueira family generation, side by by side with Niepoort generations.
Niepoort’s mission is to preserve the niche player position and continue to create great Port and Douro wines bringing together secular tradition and innovation.
