Dona Berta Douro Tinto Cao 2020

A focused Douro red made from 100% Tinto Cão, a historic variety prized for its structure and natural freshness. Grown in the rugged, sun-drenched vineyards of the Douro Superior, the grape’s thick skins and slow ripening help retain acidity while building depth.

Fermented in small lots with controlled extraction, the wine is then aged in oak to develop texture and integration without masking its varietal character. The approach highlights both the grape’s firmness and its aromatic detail.

The result is a structured, energetic red with notes of dark berries, dried herbs, and subtle spice. Firm tannins and lively acidity give it tension and length, finishing balanced, savory, and quietly complex.
