The Dao wine region is located in central Portugal, south of the Douro Valley. It is known for producing high-quality red wines made from indigenous grape varieties such as Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Alfrocheiro. The region has a long history of winemaking, dating back to the Roman times.
The main grape varieties used in Dao wines are Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, Alfrocheiro, Jaen, and Encruzado. The red wines are typically full-bodied and complex, with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and earth. The white wines, made primarily from Encruzado, are known for their crisp acidity and mineral notes.
