Pormenor Tinto, Douro DOC, 2020

$29.00

Pormenor is a small, terroir-focused project in the Douro led by Pedro Coelho and Felipe Seabra, known for crafting wines that prioritize balance, freshness, and site expression over power. The Tinto is sourced from old vines planted at elevation in the Cima Corgo, where schist soils and cooler conditions bring natural tension and restraint. Farming is sustainable, and winemaking is intentionally minimal to preserve clarity and texture.

The 2020 vintage is composed and expressive, showing red and black cherry, plum, and wild herbs layered with subtle spice and a stony, mineral edge. The palate is medium-bodied and finely structured, with fresh acidity and polished tannins giving the wine lift and definition. The finish is clean and savory, making this a refined, food-driven expression of modern Douro red.

Varietal: Field blend of traditional Douro varieties
Appellation: Douro DOC, Portugal
Farming: Sustainably farmed; low-intervention
Style: Red. Fresh, structured, and elegant
