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: Reserve wine (champagne)
Older wines, kept in vats or aged in wood in some houses, or kept in magnums at Bollinger. A small percentage of these wines are used in the blending of non-vintage wines in order to bring greater aromatic complexity.
