Rabo de ovelha
Aromatic and powerful Portuguese
The name (port.: sheep's tail) of the white, Portuguese grape variety is derived from the shape of the grapes. The vigorous white wine variety is mainly cultivated in the regions of Douro, Dão, Alentejo and Ribatejo. The aromatic and high-alcohol variety is best suited for cuvées and is often found in traditional coplanted vinyards.
