Maritavora in Portugal's upper Douro Valley is one of the few organic wine estates of the region. Their No 2 Grande Reserva is based on Touriga Nacional, and foot-trodden in the traditional manner. A red wine of incredible depth, with powerful dark plum, prune, blackberry fruit notes with hints of warm spices and minerals. Broad, soft tannins and great length. This can be enjoyed now with some decanting, but will evolve beautifully over the next 10 years and beyond

This small 15 hectare winery was founded in 1860 by Joseph Junqueiro and still remains in the family. Traditionally a supplier of grapes to the Cockburns Port house, in 2003 they started to release wines under their own label. Working with old vines, Maritavora are now one of the few Douro wineries to be fully certified organic. The vineyards are in the upper Douro at 500 metres above sea level, and can experience a 25°c day-night swing in temperature, allowing them to make wines of great concentration yet freshness
Touriga Nacional (50%), Touriga Franca (20%), Tinta Roriz (20%) and others (10%). Vineyards aged between 20 and 70 years. Vinification: Fermented in stone lagares with foot treading of the grapes. Ageing: 18 months in new French oak barrels.
