Douro Superior

The Douro’s wild and exclusive sub-region, famous for the monumental strength and pure elegance of its schist and intense-sun wines.

● Upper Douro (Douro Superior) is the wildest, most arid, and most exclusive sub-region of the Douro Valley, a schist territory where altitude and heat shape wines of monumental strength and elegance. This terroir prizes the production of structured reds and high-end mineral whites, marked by a deep aromatic depth of black fruits and unmistakable rockrose. Exploring the Upper Douro, you will find wines of austere nobility and extraordinary aging potential. It is synonymous with prestige and productive isolation, offering luxury bottles capturing the untamable soul and pure sophistication of the Douro's deepest and most preserved interior.
