Quinta Vale D. Maria
Porto Reserva
Porto
This Porto wine is made from grapes of a single vintage, selected after those for the Vintage and LBV, ensuring a more consistent tasting profile, greater intensity, and an even higher potential for aging. The grapes come from a field blend of over 25 traditional Douro varieties, with a predominance of Touriga Franca, Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Barroca, but also including, among others, Rufete, Tinta Amarela, Tinta Francisca, and Sousão, sourced from vineyards aged between 10 and over 80 years. These vineyards are exposed to the south, southeast, east, and west.
