O Produtor, tasting note published in May 27th 2023

Aromas of red fruits and spices reveal a gentle maceration to preserve the typical characteristics of the grape varieties and allow the wine to reach its peak after bottling. On the palate, it is very smooth and sweet with balanced acidity.

Adega Cooperativa de Vila Real

Adega de Vila Real was founded in 1955 and is part of the Douro Demarcated Region, the oldest in the world, being also recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage.
The vineyards and Quintas of our associates are still cultivated according to traditional techniques, being composed mostly by old vines, with low level of mechanization and low productions per hectare. It is there that the grapes that give origin to our Port and Douro Wines are born, with a modern and international profile maintaining the “terroir” of the Douro.
In recent years the brand “Adega de Vila Real” has become one of the references of great vitality of the Douro, and the affirmation of the region both in Portugal and abroad, through an offer of wines widely distinguished by the excellent price/quality ratio, the press and the most reputable competitions”.
