Padeiro

The red grape variety originates from Portugal; the name means "baker", but the meaning is unknown. Synonyms are D. Pedro, Padeiro de Basto, Tinto Cão and Tinto Matias.

Ancestry

According to DNA analyses carried out in 2020, it is a presumably natural cross between Hebén x Vinhão. It should not be confused with the Espadeiro (synonym Padeiro Tinto) or Tinto Cão varieties due to some of the same synonyms or morphological similarities.

Characteristics

The early to medium ripening vine is susceptible to downy mildew, but resistant to botrytis. It produces light-coloured, low-acid red wines with a fruity aroma, which are also used for the production of rosé wines.
