Rabigato

Rabigato is a white grape associated with the Upper Douro. Wines of Portugal distinguishes it from Rabo de Ovelha, with which its name has been confused.

Identity and growing conditions

The source describes medium bunches and small yellow-green berries. Historical name confusion is retained as a caution rather than used to merge Rabigato with a different variety.

Wine styles and uses

Its wines are described as fresh and structured, with lively acidity and possible floral or vegetal impressions. The profile records single-variety winemaking in suitable sites; it does not establish one compulsory style.
