Tinta Barroca

red

Warm climate

Soft, aromatic red adding perfume and early accessibility to Douro blends. One of the five recommended Port grapes. Ripens earlier than Touriga Nacional, making it useful in cooler, higher-altitude vineyards.

Contributes to blends best within 5-12 years. Rarely vinified alone.
