The Region - The top Dão wines are now some of the most highly rated in Europe, winning consistent praise on both sides of the Atlantic. Traditionally, these wines have been labelled according to the region in which they were grown, rather than the varietal composition of their contents.
However, blending practices in Portuguese wine are not as overwhelmingly complex as they once were, and modern labelling conventions have helped to demystify the country's winemaking.
