Description
Portugal-DouroS
Douro

Famous as the source of port wine, the Douro is now also renowned for its fine, rich unfortified wines, both red and white.
This is one of the wildest, most mountainous and rugged wine regions of Portugal, cut through in deep twists and turns by the River Douro. Defying gravity on the steep slopes along the banks of the river and its tributaries, the vines are planted in poor, schistous soils.
The Douro region is divided into three sub-regions: from west to east the Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo and Douro Superior.
Port and DOC Douro wines are made only with native grape varieties. The most widely-used ones are Touriga Nacional, Tinta Barroca, Tinto Cão, Tinta Roriz & the most widely planted variety Touriga Franca.

Romaneira

One of the historic & largest Quintas of the Douro Valley, with 412 hectares and 3 kilometres of river frontage on the Douro River.
The vineyard has 86 hectares planted, principally with the noble Douro grape varieties of Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz and Tinto Cão, but also a small proportion of white grapes (Gouveio and Malvasia-Fina), and a few experimental hectares of “exotic” grape varieties such as Syrah and Petit Verdot.
Since 2004, the company is managed by Christian Seely, bringing his experience in Douro Valley at Quinta do Noval but also in Bordeaux at Chateaux Pichon Longueville and Petit Village, as Managing Director of Axa Millesimes.
