The variety is natural and traditional to Portugal. DNA analysis confirmed its genetic link to the Tinto Cão and Rabigato varieties, while the previously assumed relationship with Pinot Noir was not confirmed.
The vine has vertical growth and is characterized by a long vegetative cycle. The clusters of the variety are small, cylindrical-conical in shape, and of moderate density. The variety demonstrates adaptability to climatic fluctuations.
Wines made from this grape are characterized by subtle aromas of raspberry, cherry, and sweet spices, often with a pronounced perfume note, while possessing lower concentration (body) compared to other varieties of the Douro region.
