The Niepoort family has been making wine in Port’s Douro Valley since 1842. Dirk Niepoort, the 5th generation of the family wine business raised the quality & expanded to Alentejo, Dao, & bought Quinta de Baixo in Bairrada in 2012. Dirk’s son Daniel is the 6th generation to enter the business. I have been a fan since I visited in 2004.
