The Douro is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful wine regions in the world. Its landscapes of century-old vines cultivated in terraces are also classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The region follows the meandering course of the Douro River from the Spanish border to the city of Mesão Frio, located about 100 kilometers from the port city of Porto. Of the approximately 40,000 hectares of vineyards in the Douro, more than half are located on slopes with an inclination of more than 30%
The Douro is divided into three sub-regions: from west to east, Baixo Corgo, Cima Corgo and the Douro Superior. The Douro vineyard has long been characterized by the presence of a multitude of indigenous grape varieties (almost fifty), planted and mixed on the same plots of land. Recently, Douro winemakers have begun to replant other red grape varieties such as sousão (or vinhão) and tinta amarela (or trincadeira).
