Generous in what concerns the outcome, lavish in its potential alcoholic content, Tinta Barroca manages to combine great productivity with a high potential degree. It doesn’t coexist well with excessive heat or with water stress, it easily becomes raisins under extreme conditions. Of medium production and with good resistance to diseases and pests, Tinta Barroca embodies the wines of intense colour, smooth but rustic, with high alcoholic potential.
