Description

Pormenor Douro Tinto showcases a masterful blend of indigenous Douro varieties, predominantly Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Amarela, and Rufete. Crafted by winemaker Pedro Coelho from 60+ year-old vines planted above 500 meters in Soutelo do Douro, this wine reflects the region's distinctive schist terroir. The grapes undergo fermentation and maceration in stainless steel vats with indigenous yeasts and minimal intervention, followed by 18 months aging in used French oak barrels.

Tasting notes

Violet-hued with discreet aromas featuring fresh, mineral notes reminiscent of wet stone. The palate reveals vibrant red fruit, well-integrated acidity, and elegant toasted oak nuances with medium-long finish.

Food pairings

Producer profile

Pormenor

Pormenor is a boutique Portuguese wine producer founded by Pedro Coelho in the Douro Valley, specializing in minimal intervention wines that showcase native grape varieties and traditional terroir. The name "Pormenor," meaning "detail" in Portuguese, reflects Coelho's meticulous approach to winemaking. Based in a humble garage-turned-winery, Pormenor sources grapes from old vineyards across the Douro Superior and Cima Corgo regions, working with vines ranging from 50 to 100 years old planted at high altitudes between 500-700 meters on schist soils.

Coelho, who gained experience at prestigious estates like Quinta do Portal and Niepoort under the influence of Luis Seabra, focuses on low-intervention techniques using indigenous yeasts, minimal sulfur, and no temperature control. His portfolio emphasizes native Portuguese varieties including Rabigato, Malvasia Fina, Codega do Larinho for whites, and traditional Douro field blends of Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Rufete for reds. The wines are characterized by freshness, elegance, moderate alcohol levels, and distinctive mineral profiles that authentically express each vintage's natural conditions while preserving the unique character of Portugal's ancient viticultural heritage.

Wine region

Douro Valley, Portugal

The Douro Valley stands as one of Portugal's most spectacular and historically significant wine regions, carved by the Douro River as it winds through dramatic terraced hillsides from the Spanish border to Porto. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this ancient viticultural landscape has produced wine for over 2,000 years, gaining international fame as the birthplace of Port wine in the 17th century.

The region divides into three distinct sub-zones: the cooler, Atlantic-influenced Baixo Corgo near Porto; the central Cima Corgo around Pinhão, considered the heart of premium Port production; and the continental Douro Superior extending to the Spanish frontier. The valley's unique terroir combines steep schist and granite slopes with extreme temperature variations, creating ideal conditions for both fortified and table wines.

While historically dominated by Port production, the Douro has experienced a renaissance in dry table wines since the 1990s. The region's indigenous grape varieties—including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz for reds, and Rabigato, Viosinho, Gouveio for whites—produce wines of remarkable complexity and aging potential. Modern Douro table wines showcase elegant minerality, balanced acidity, and distinctive terroir expression, establishing the region as Portugal's premier fine wine destination beyond its famous fortified heritage.
