Duorum was founded in 2007 by João Portugal Ramos and José Soares Franco, two of Portugal’s most renowned enologists.  Most of their wines are dry table wines, but they also produce Vintage Port.  For Altitude, the vineyards are in Quinta de Castelo Melhor (sub-region Douro Superior) with schist soil and hot summers.  The winery uses Altitude to support local conservation of endangered bird species, as they believe that many healthy animal species contribute to optimum soil conditions.  Aged in stainless steel.  Blackberry, raspberry, anise, violet
