The Story

MAC Tinto by Maçanita authentically reflects the Douro Valley terroir through its use of indigenous varieties—Touriga Nacional, Sousão, and Tinta Roriz—blended to honor regional winemaking traditions. The name "MAC" is derived from the nickname associated with the Maçanita family name.

About Macanita

Producer Story

Joana Maçanita is a dynamo. Her energy, intense focus and passion for every facet of life are infectious—and nowhere is this more apparent than in the wines she makes. Her dedication to her craft is eclipsed only by her talent, and her project in the Douro Valley is a perfect showcase for her full-speed-ahead, accept-no-substitutes style. Working with her brother Antonio, Joana sources from old vineyards spread across the three subzones of the Douro Valley. In search of freshness and minerality above all else, Joana uses classic Douro grape varieties, sourced from plots planted at high altitudes. The wines that result are balanced, elegant, and a transparent expression of true Douro terroir.
