Variety description

10 August 2026

The variety is widely cultivated in the Canary Islands, and its origin is linked to the Portuguese regions of Douro and Dão. The plant is characterized by moderate growth vigor and a relatively small amount of leaves.

In winemaking, the variety is valued for its contribution to the elegance and longevity of wines, especially in the creation of blends and port wines. Scientific studies record the variety's adaptive mechanisms to environmental stress factors, such as heat stress and soil salinity, through a specific salicylic acid accumulation response.
