Tourinio red wine is from the producer Quinta de Tourais located Lamego in northern Portugal in the region of Douro. Quinta de Tourais is a very small vineyard, only 8 hectares. They produce only around 12000 bottles each year and Touronio red wine is made in 4500 bottles. The taste of Touronio red wine gives you plums, herbs and dried fruit. The label has also a story, the bull with help of the human hand together takes the grapes wine house. Their is no possibility to make it in an other way due to the steep places where the grapes grow. There is no normal label on the bottle, it is printed directly to the bottle. They make it like this, because if you will store it you will not wipe out the label. You should always see what you are drinking even if you save the bottles for many years. The only thing that is a problem is that we never have enough wine from Quinta de Tourais to cover the demands from customers. You can also look for the other wines they produce, Miura and Furia. The winemaker Fernando Coelho is the architect behind the wine and his sister Manuela are working with their little hotel on the vineyard that is only 3 rooms, but they are superb. They also have a small Tapas restaurant in Regua. When you are visiting them and trying their fantastic wines, you can choose what you want to drink at their restaurant, take it under your arm and take a short walk to their restaurant. Douro is a fantastic place, very beautiful and the home of the portwine and has been designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
