Douro (DOC)
This region through which the Rio Douro runs down to Porto produces very
little red and white wine for domestic consumption as its grapes are
reserved for the making of Port. The red wine can vary from a Claret
variety to a Burgundy. The white wine tends to be delightfully fresh and
fruity. Some labels that are available are Acácio, Auster, Àzeo, Barca
