Vital is a white Portuguese wine grape variety that is grown primarily in Western Portugal. Sometimes known under the synonym Malvasia Corado, the variety tends to produce rather neutral flavor wine with low acidity unless the grape is grown in vineyards of high altitude.〔J. Robinson ''Jancis Robinson's Guide to Wine Grapes'' pg 198 Oxford University Press 1996 ISBN 0198600984〕 Another common synonym in the Lisboa VR of the former Estremadura Province is ''Malvasia Fina'' though ampelographers are not sure if Vital is related to the Malvasia grown widely in Italy, Greece and throughout Europe. One key difference that ampelographers note is that the shape of the leaves of Vital and the various Malvasia species tend to be very different. Even in the Douro DOC there is a Malvasia Fina used in Port wine production that may or may not be the same variety as Vital.〔Oz Clarke ''Encyclopedia of Grapes'' pg 284 Harcourt Books 2001 ISBN 0-15-100714-4〕 ==List of DOCs== Vital is a permitted variety in several Portuguese wine regions including the following ''Denominação de Origem Controlada'' (DOC)s:〔T.
