Discover the grape variety: Mayorquin

Lively, aromatic whites with a pale golden robe, an airy palate with preserved acidity, and signature aromas of white flowers, citrus (lemon, grapefruit) and fresh Mediterranean notes. A discreet, characteristic Provençal profile. Preserved for its heritage value, it survives in a few Provençal heritage plots and is among the ancient grape varieties of south-eastern France that are studied. An indigenous French white from Provence, grown in negligible quantities.

The wine region of Douro

Cradle of Port: opulent fortified wine with notes of candied black fruit, cocoa, fig, walnut and spice, from young fruity Ruby to oxidative amber Tawny, plus age-worthy LBV and Vintage of exceptional cellaring. Also great dry Douro DOC reds, structured and deep (violet, black-fruited Touriga Nacional, elegant Touriga Franca, spicy Tinta Roriz). A few fresh Douro whites. Terraced vineyards (~40,000 ha) UNESCO on schist.


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.
