Buy Wine from Ribeiro
The Ribeiro Denomination of Origin is located in Galicia, in the western end of the province of Orense. It is a countryside opened by the course of rivers Miño, Avia and Arnoia, whose wide valleys lodge the 13 municipalities producing Ribeiro wines in a total of 2.700 hectares. Here the vines grow at an altitude between 75 and 400 metres above the sea level, both in the valleys and the terraced steep hillsides.
The climate and soil in Ribeiro
The Ribeiro climate is a key factor in determining the characteristics of the wines. Mediterranean in character, although with a clear Atlantic influence due to the short distance from the sea, the climate is temperate and humid, with average temperatures ranging from 11 to 15ºC and a high rainfall rate.
The orography of the mountain ranges on its borders has an important protective effect, and means that the climate is not excessively Atlantic. The soils are of granite origin, with a large proportion of stone and gravel, which favours the cultivation of the vine as the roots are well aerated and the soil retains the heat.
Ribeiro climate has a clear Atlantic influence, mild and humid, with average temperatures between 11 and 15º C and high rainfall. Soils are granitic and have a big proportion of stone and gravel, which offers good ventilation to roots in a soil that keeps heat thus favouring the vineyard cultivation.Varieties of Ribeiro Wine
The most characteristic varieties in Ribeiro wines are: Treixadura, Lado, Torrontés, Godello, Macabeo, Albillo, Loureiro and Albariño if we talk about white wines, and Caiño, Garnacha, Sousón, Mencía, Brancellao and Tempranillo in the case of red wines.
White wines are fragrant, fruity, very aromatic and with good acidity. Red wines also marvel for its excellent acidity, their intense colours and the fruity personality, even having a moderate alcoholic content.
