The history of our lands
Casal de Boas Vides
Each Boas Vides vineyard holds a unique story, written in stone, soil, and time. At Mesón de Pardo, Caiño Longo vines have grown since 2009 on a west-facing slope—a legacy of San Clodio’s winemaking past. In Peitieiros, an ancient wine press carved into the rock, near the site known as A Granxa, bears witness to a winemaking presence dating back centuries. Formigueira, with its centuries-old terraces along the banks of the Miño, keeps the memory of medieval harvests alive. And in San Lourenzo da Pena, tradition remains a living presence in a place steeped in identity and silence.
Together, these estates tell the story of a Ribeiro that endures and is reborn in every vine, every harvest, and every glass of wine.
Soil
Terraces and hills of granitic and slate origin, with good drainage and a rich mineral diversity that nourishes our vines.
Weather
Atlantic microclimate with continental influence: mild winters, warm summers, and a good temperature range, ideal for balanced ripening.
Vines
Our vines grow on traditional hillsides; they are tended by hand, adapted to the environment, and cultivated with respect for nature.
Grapes
