Tinta Roriz
Meet Tinta Roriz, a grape variety that brings warmth, character and plenty of charm to the glass. Also known as Aragonez in some regions, Tinta Roriz is a favourite at Cavavin for good reason: it’s the sort of grape that shows up with rich red fruit, gentle spice and a naturally inviting feel, whether it’s bottled as a focused wine or blended for extra depth.
What makes Tinta Roriz so appealing is its balance. It’s capable of delivering succulent flavours like ripe cherry and plummy notes, while still keeping a firm backbone that helps the wine stay fresh and satisfying. You’ll often find aromas that lean towards dark berries, hints of sweet tobacco or cocoa-like tones, and a smooth finish that encourages another sip.
Perfect for drinkers who enjoy red wines with real personality, Tinta Roriz pairs beautifully with classic table favourites. Think roast meats, hearty stews, grilled peppers, and even a hard cheese with a touch of saltiness. It’s also a fantastic choice if you’re building a small collection and want variety that feels both approachable and expressive.
