The Beiorte project began in 2020 with the restoration of João's great-grandfather's historic cellar, born from a passion for authentic, artisanal wines that honour the region's old vineyards, traditional farming, and unique terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe name \"Cidade\" is inspired by the old women who still climb the Portuguese hills every day — for Beiorte, a symbol of the daily hardship and resilience behind winemaking here. It's a genuinely delicious, fruit-forward red, with a layer of complexity from its time in oak.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMade from a traditional field blend — Tinta Pinheira, Trincadeira, Baga, Alfrocheiro and other varieties grown intertwined, a style once common throughout the Dão — from old vines on granite soils in the cool, high-altitude Alva sub-region near the Serra do Açor mountains. That combination of altitude, rugged terrain and cool climate gives the wine its lively acidity, finesse and distinctive mineral edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eMade naturally with no added sulphite: the fruit is hand-harvested in late September, destemmed and macerated for 10 days, fermented on indigenous yeast, then aged 15 months in oak followed by 6 months in stainless steel. 12% alc, 750ml.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe name \"Beiorte\" comes from an old local dialect once spoken in the village, simply meaning \"wine,\" and every cork is stamped \"Beiorte Gido\" — \"good wine\" — a small mark of the care behind each release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eFresh and beautifully balanced, Cidade Tinto 2021 shows bright red berries, wild herbs, subtle spice and earthy complexity, framed by fine tannin and lively acidity — a soulful, modern take on traditional Dão winemaking, refined and full of character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Artisan Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45014669099077,"sku":"BV21CDT","price":85.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0727\/8644\/4357\/files\/beiortecidadetinto.png?v=1778816607","url":"https:\/\/artisanwine.com.au\/products\/beiorte-cidade-tinto-2021","provider":"Artisan Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
