Douro
The Douro Valley, Portugal’s historic heart of winemaking, captivates with its dramatic terraced vineyards and celebrated wines. Famous for Port wine and exceptional reds, the region’s steep slopes along the Douro River create a unique terroir influenced by a continental climate. Indigenous grape varieties like Touriga Nacional and Tinta Roriz thrive here, producing wines with bold character and age-worthy complexity. Recognized as the world’s first demarcated wine region, the Douro Valley exemplifies a blend of tradition and modernity.

Atelier Palhete 2023
€14.00
This wine is a co-fermentation of 20% white grapes (mainly Gouveio, Arinto, and Rabigato) and 80% red grapes (mainly Tinta Barroca picked from the coolest spot in the vineyard near a stream and lots of trees), that is done in old granite lagars without any temperature control.
