Nat Cool, naturally cool and funky, is an innovative concept created by Niepoort with the aim of a bringing together various different producers to produce light, easy-drinking wines. The Primata is the result of Dirk Niepoort giving his cellar master Luís Pedro a “push” to make his own wine in 2016. The grapes for this wine stem from vineyards growing at an altitude of 600m in the Douro Valley, more specifically in the Tabuaço region. The character and lightness of these high-lying vineyards with their granitic slate soils as well as the structure of the Douro grape varieties combine with the “Natcool-factor” of “less is more”: minimal intervention in the vineyards as well as in the cellar. A minimalist wine making concept where the raw material speaks for itself!
