Callabriga

Callabriga highlights the diverse wine growing regions of Portugal. Callabriga Wines are predominantly made from the grape Tinta Roriz (a.k.a Tempranillo), a grape that is common to the Douro, Dao and Alentejo regions, but gives wines a very different character of each terroir. The careful blending with varietals more unique to each region creates wines that reflect the unique climate and tradition of that region with a unifying varietal.

By retaining these myriad varietals and allying them to the latest thinking in vine growing and winemaking techniques, Callabriga offers modern, well-made wines that are genuinely different from those of any other country.

“Our passion for great wines led us to search for the unique flavours of the Portuguese wine regions” – Salvador Guedes, President and CEO

• 

  Douro

  The oldest demarcated wine region in the world, created over 250 years ago. The steeply terraced vineyards grow along the same river where world-renowned Port Wine is produced. The low-yielding vines help create a definite sense of terroir from steep, state based slopes with long growing days and cool nights.

• 

  Dao

  The climate here is tempered by surrounding mountains. The wines are bright, lively and elegant in their youth without sacrificing their unique character and delicate balance.

• 

  Alentejo

  Spanning on third of Portugal, this region benefits from a variety of microclimates. Constant warmth, bright sunlight and a patchwork of soil types creates the perfect conditions for high quality grape growing that helps to craft big, bold wines.
