The Portugal map and text distinguish Vinho Verde in several colors, Douro table wines, Dao, Bairrada, Tejo/Ribatejo and Alentejo. Douro may use familiar port varieties without becoming port; mixed-variety and mixed-vineyard blends can be used in either sector. Examples assign acidity or texture roles relative to a specific blend.
