About this product

Cool-climate red with a rustic soul.
The red side of Vinho Verde is often overlooked, but Barcos Tinto makes a compelling case. Made primarily from Vinhão, a grape known for its inky colour and punchy character, this is a light-bodied red with bright acidity, dark berry flavours, and a slightly grippy, rustic edge. Traditionally served chilled, it’s Portugal’s answer to a juicy Beaujolais or a wild Lambrusco.

Perfect for those who want something a little different—but very drinkable.

Why we love it:
It’s unusual and unforgettable. Red wine with lift, texture, and a bit of grit—made for chillier evenings or charcuterie spreads. Try it chilled and see why this hidden gem is gaining fans in Ireland.

Formerly known as Adega Cooperativa Ponte da Barca, Barcos Wines brings together generations of winemaking tradition in Portugal’s lush Vinho Verde region. Nestled between the Lima and Vez rivers in the north of the country, this cooperative has evolved into a modern, quality-driven winery—while remaining deeply rooted in the land and the growers who tend it.

Barcos Wines is passionate about expressing the unique character of native grapes like Loureiro, Alvarinho, and Vinhão. Their portfolio spans from vibrant, easy-drinking classics to more complex, barrel-aged wines, always with a focus on freshness, authenticity, and sustainability. As Vinho Verde gains ground in Ireland, Barcos stands out for their commitment to quality and honest expression of terroir.
