Origin

Produced in Portugal, Ribafreixo is a well-known winery located in the Dão region, an area recognized for its quality red wines.

Variety

SELECAO RED is typically a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties, often including Touriga Nacional, Tinta Roriz, and Alfrocheiro, which are common in the Dão region.

Production

The wine is crafted using traditional vinification methods combined with modern techniques to ensure quality and consistency. Grapes are hand-harvested, fermented under controlled temperatures, and aged in oak barrels to develop complexity and balance.
