<p></p><p>Doda red wine displays a sumptuous ruby colour and, for a vintage as balanced as 2012, offers floral aromas, dark berries, deep complexity and some body. The wood is well-integrated in the delicate mineral character of the wine. On the palate, it shows intense concentration, with firm tannins and great structure. Its minerality and superb acidity lend the wine freshness and balance, with a very long and vivacious finish its the power of the Douro and the elegance of the D in perfect harmony</p>

<p>Textura Wines is an organic viticulture project established in 2018 in the Dão region of Portugal. The project focuses on producing wines that express the specific terroir of the slopes of the Serra da Estrela. <br /><br />The production is primarily divided into two sub-regions of Dão: <br /><br />Gouveia (Serra da Estrela), where vineyards with granite soils and higher altitudes are found. These conditions give rise to wines with high acidity and a mineral profile, such as the Textura da Estrela range. <br /><br />Penalva do Castelo (Terras de Azurara) is a transitional soil area where the Vinha Encoberta and the project's winery are located. The winery is a converted former textile industry.<br /><br />The wines are crafted using indigenous grape varieties from the region (such as Encruzado and Bical for whites, and Jaen, Touriga Nacional, Alfrocheiro, or Tinta Pinheira for reds), employing a philosophy of minimal intervention in the winery.</p>

<p></p><p>The Quinta das Carvalhas is a property of great beauty and spectacularity, with a predominant position on the slope of the left bank of the Douro River in Pinhão, which extends along the slopes of the right bank of the affluent Torto River.<br />The earliest written references to the Quinta date back to 1759, with its magnificent Old Vines, of post-phylloxeric planting, reaching the respectable age of a century</p>
