Ribeiro

Ribeiro is a Spanish protected wine appellation in Galicia, useful for drinkers who want to move beyond the best-known Spanish regions. Its practical label identity is Galician white wines built around Treixadura, with red wines from Atlantic varieties also part of the tradition. Typical wines are fresh dry whites with citrus, apple, fennel, stone fruit, and mineral lift; smaller volumes of light to medium-bodied reds. The vineyard context is Atlantic-influenced river valleys with granite, schist, and sandy alluvial soils that preserve freshness.
