The wine region of Porto
One of the world's oldest fortified wines: fortified with grape spirit during fermentation, keeping its residual sugars. Opulent style, long on the palate, notes of candied black fruits, cocoa, fig, walnut, coffee and spices. Four styles: young fruity Ruby (cherry, blackberry), Tawny aged oxidatively in cask (caramel, hazelnut, bitter orange), age-worthy LBV and Vintage, White as aperitif. Grapes: Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz.
The wine region of Duriense
Portuguese IGP covering the Douro and Porto area (northeast), schist soils on vertiginous terraced slopes, dry continental climate, flexible status outside DOC. Touriga Nacional signature as red king (300+ authorised varieties): intense and floral with blackberry, black cherry, violet, garrigue, liquorice and mineral schist hint, firm tannins — noble Douro emblem. Supple Touriga Franca and spicy Tinta Roriz as complement. Fresh mineral whites and creative modern sparkling.
The word of the wine: Wooded
A set of aromas brought about by ageing in barrels (usually oak). This can be pleasant when, in small doses, it brings a touch of spice, roast or vanilla to an already constructed ensemble. When the violent woodiness dominates the wine, it is quickly tiring. Easily identifiable aromatically, it is sought after (to the point of abuse) by the makers of coarse wines. New World manufacturers and, alas, some French winemakers use oak chips to impart the woody taste, which is tantamount to artificial flavoring.
