O Produtor, tasting note published in April 10th 2019

Deep red colour. Very intense and complex aroma dominated by ripe black fruits, blackberries, cassis, floral aromas of violet and some spicy notes that result from "elevage" in the barrels. Also, noticeable aromas of evolution in the bottle, all contributing to further complexity. Dense, concentrated wine with well-balanced acidity, firm and well integrated ripe tannins, and a range of sensations of richness and strength. These characteristics together with intensive retronasal aroma, gives it a long and persistent finish. A wine for ageing.

Vinification: Upon arrival at the winery the grapes originating from old vines are carefully selected and de-stemmed. Pre-fermentative maceration at low temperature with robotized treading in stainless steel “laggares” (troughs) takes place, following fermentation at controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. Pumping over and “delestage” processes are then started in order to obtain the greatest extraction possible through a careful selection limited to the chosen constituents followed by a long post-fermentative maceration .
Ageing: In 225 and 300 litres French oak barrels for 24 months, 70 % ages in new oak barrels and 30 % in second and third year barrels.

Duorum Vinhos

Two Winemakers who have made history in Portugal over the last few decades, in two regions that the world recognises as being of high quality and having strong personality, the Douro and Alentejo, meet again in a project thought out for the Douro, in the regions of the Cima Corgo and Hight Douro, two exceptional and protected terroirs. Thus, Duorum is born, a project “from two”, envisaged and brought to life in the age-old vineyards of the Douro.

Duorum Wines started in January 2007 as an expression of wishes of João Portugal Ramos and José Maria Soares Franco wishes to join their activities as professional winemakers in one wine production project from Douro region, with unique characteristics and an international dimension.
