One of the highlights of our trip last April to Portugal's spectacular Douro Valley was a visit to the Duorum project - a joint venture (hence Duo) between two of Portugal's most cutting edge winemakers, Jose Maria Soares Franco and João Portugal Ramos.

So impressive was the quality across their range that, on the long winding drive to our next appointment, we discussed the possibility of Duorum producing an exclusive blend under a Tanners label...

We were delighted to be able to offer you the first glimpse of Tanners Douro Red, which was recently offered a special opening en primeur price. This offer has closed but our Tanners Douro Red is now available online.

The Douro Valley is the most exciting new region for wine right now, and Tanners is leading the vanguard with this beautiful new red. We think you'll love its opulent, rich aromas and its generous cherry and blueberry fruit flavours, interwoven with subtle hints of smoke and spice. A wonderful alternative to Claret, Rhône and Spanish wines. A fabulous wine and unbeatable value!
