  1. Madeira
  2. Port
  3. Rosado
  4. Tinto
Explanation
Answer: D - Of the Dāo wines, Tinto cannot be released before May 15th of the year after the grapes were harvested. Tinto literally means red, so Tinto is the most basic red wine in Portugal, meaning it is a VR, or Vino Regional table wine. VR is the lowest level of certification in Portugal. The minimum requirements are that it has to be released after May 15th of the year after the grapes were harvested.
