Nat Cool is an innovative, naturally “cool and funky” concept initiated by Niepoort in the Vinho Verde wine region. The movement later expanded into Bairrada and the Douro Valley and is now represented in various Portuguese as well as international wine regions.

Nat Cool is not just about producing low-intervention wines – it embodies a movement uniting many different producers striving towards a shared goal of crafting uncomplicated, light and easy-to-drink wines.

In 2020, the Nat Cool “family” grew, with its foray into Portugal’s Dão region. It is here, on the slopes of the Serra da Estrela Mountain Range that the DrinkMe Nat Cool is created and where we explore the region’s potential for elegant, fresh and straight-forward wines.

This wine is uncomplicated, versatile, elegant and refreshing, reflecting the terroir of the slopes of the Serra da Estrela. On the nose, fruits of the forest such as blackberry and currant combine with balsamic nuances typical of the Tinta Pinheira grape variety.

On the palate, the Baga grape variety reveals its elegant and lively side as well as its lingering acidity which adds to the wine’s character.
