Parker about Tiara Branco 2023

The only Douro white from granite soils, the 2023 Tiara is a blend of Rabigato (all whites have a lot of Rabigato, which provides very good acidity), Códega de Larinho, Donzelinho, Cercial and other varieties (perhaps some Alvarinho too) from very old vines at 600 meters in altitude. It fermented and aged in old, neutral oak foudres (1,300 to 2,500 liters) to give it a crystalline and pure character. It has austerity, contained ripeness and a balanced mouthfeel, with the granite granularity and a salty twist. It's surprisingly expressive for its young age, and it feels harmonious even after a very recent bottling. It feels like the 2023s are quite approachable. This is characterful, with a mixture of savory, floral and herbal notes, super tasty and pungent. It has terrific balance and is approachable but should also age. 13,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in February 2025. It was bottled unfined and unfiltered, perhaps that's why it feels so expressive.

Suckling over Tiara Branco 2023

Initially floral, with exuberant yet contained white fruit and an herbal note. The flavorful palate is angular but long, with a linear profile and almost-rich stone fruit, layered and absorbing. Concentrated yet bright. Mostly encruzado, bical and malvasia. Fermented in granite lagares (rectangular tanks), then aged in barrels for 20 months. Drink or hold.

Produktbeschreibung

Tiara Branco 2023


The Tiara Branco 2023 hails from venerable vineyards in the Douro, where vines between 40 and over 100 years old are rooted in schist- and granite-rich soils at high altitudes of 600 to 800 meters. This exposed elevation imparts a pronounced, cool minerality and an invigorating freshness. Vinified in large wooden foudres, the wine fermented with indigenous yeasts and matured gently without losing its crystalline clarity and authenticity.

In the glass, the Tiara Branco 2023 appears elegant and pure, with a fine texture and a slender frame. Its structure is transparent yet persistent: vibrant acidity brings tension and energy, while a subtle mineral vein lends depth and character. Altogether poised and finely chiseled, it bears a cool, saline, and delicately herbal signature—a white wine that reflects its origin, soil, and ancient vines in a direct, unpretentious manner.

Its profile makes it an ideal companion to refined fish and seafood dishes or light vegetarian cuisine, yet it is equally captivating on its own through its restraint, freshness, and stylistic precision.

Information about the winemaker:


The history of the traditional company begins almost 200 years ago, when Franciscus Marius van der Niepoort, a young, ambitious Dutchman from near Amsterdam, laid the foundation for the wine company. After emigrating to Portugal and gaining some experience in the wine trade, he founded today's winery in 1842. According to the region, he focused on port wines.
