The 172-acre Quinta do Valdoeiro is just outside Mealhada in the Bairrada region. This wine is made from the Douro grape, Touriga Nacional, rather than the local Baga. It has a dark purple color and yeasty, toasty aromas. The palate is dark and withdrawn, with powerful toast flavors and black fruits. —R.V.
