Wines from Douro DOC

Douro DOC is a prestigious wine designation within Portugal's Douro Valley, centered around the terraced vineyards along the Douro River and its tributaries. The region features a continental climate with hot, dry summers and cold winters, alongside schist and granite soils on steep slopes that create a challenging yet distinctive terroir for viticulture. While historically known for Port wine production, Douro DOC specifically designates the region's outstanding still wines, primarily made from indigenous varieties like Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca for reds, and Malvasia Fina, Viosinho, and Gouveio for increasingly acclaimed whites.
