Dirk Niepoort started this project as Girosol in 2007, working with Luis Cerdeira of Soalheiro to create a refreshing coastal white from the Loureiro grape. Rechristened "Docil" in the 2011 vintage, this wine's granitic soil notes and oceanic impact brings Muscadet from Clisson to mind. Take a sip, and pear juice seems to pour out from the sides of the mouth and from under the tongue, the flavor fresh and lasting, focused on minerals.
