O Produtor, tasting note published in September 27th 2020
Wine with an intense straw colour. Bakery aromas, honey, grapefruit, white flowers and the wet stone. In the mouth it is a wine full of layers, very voluminous and full of energy given its persistent freshness.
Mixed fresh grapes at their ideal point of ripeness, hand picked for boxes of 20 kg, are transported to the winery where they were subjected to a careful manual selection. They are destemmed, crushed and macerated for 48 hours, then they go on to French oak barrels, where they ferment and age. This wine is a blend of wines from several years (2 barrels from 2015, one barrel from 2016, 2017 and 2018)
Contains sulphites.

From the beginning, the work has always focused on the search for old vines in the most genuine and less explored places, where there are new stories to be told in the form of wine.
It was at the foot of Serra do Reboredo (1,000 meters altitude), in Paredes da Beira, at the highest point of the Douro, that everything began, giving birth to the brand “Titan of Douro”. Surrounded by abundant granite outcrops, the area has sandy granite soils interspersed with quartz veins, an altitude between 700 – 1,000 meters, located on the slopes of the Rio Távora, and possesses an enviable heritage of century-old vineyards, untouched over time and maintained by the weathered hands of years of hard work over generations. This results in wines of great freshness, character, and identity!
Currently, the project has grown, and Luís Leocádio launches:
“Titan of Beira Interior”, a concept focused on single varietals in various vinification and aging formats.
“Titan of Távora-Varosa”, born from a passion for the region, both for its proximity and inspiration from Aquilino Ribeiro’s novel “Terras do Demo”; a region of excellence for producing the best sparkling wines in Portugal, where we wanted to do things differently and highlight still wines, with a mineral, fresh, and unique character, affectionately called “Sparkling wines without bubbles”.
“Titan of Porto”, where the winemaker becomes a true maestro, skillfully combining different lots to create a wine that is more than the sum of its parts – it is an unparalleled sensory experience and a journey of discovery and experimentation, where each lot is carefully selected and combined to create a unique expression of flavor, aroma, and character that captivates the senses and fuels dreams.
