Features
Body ? The body is the way a wine feels inside the mouth. Several factors, such as the alcohol content and the presence of tannins, contribute to the feel of the wine.
Freshness ? The freshness of a wine is defined by its level of acidity. Unlike rounded wines, fresh wines are easy to drink, and are more lively. Acidity plays a necessary part in a wine's structure.
Aging ? All wines do not have the same aging potential. Some are supposed to be consumed at a young age while others must be kept for longer periods of time.
Tannins ? Coming from stems, grape pips and their storage barrels, the tannin gives structure to red wines only.

Terras Do Grifo
Dans ces terres arides, là où le soleil tombe comme un masque de plomb, là où nos moindres pas coûtent, là où le plus petit coin d’ombre est recherché, c’est là, dans cette partie du Douro Supérior, que sont plantées des vignes en coteaux le long des méandres du fleuve. Ces vignes puisent leur richesse dans ce sol fait majoritairement de schiste et c’est dans ce sol qu’elles acquièrent la force et la résistance qui leur sont nécessaires pour survivre aux assauts du soleil et de la chaleur. Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée : D.O.P. Douro (A.O.C.).
