Overview

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Tejo, until 2009 named Ribatejo, is a Portuguese wine region covering the same areas as the Ribatejo Province. It takes its name from the river Tejo (Tagus). The entire region is entitled to use the Vinho Regional designation Tejo VR, while some areas are also classified at the higher Denominacao de Origem Controlada (DOC) level under the designation Ribatejo DOC. VR is similar to the French vin de pays and DOC to the French AOC. Located between the Lisboa and Alentejo VRs, the region is dominated by the influence of the Tagus river. The river moderates the region's climate, making it more temperate than other areas of Portugal. Vineyards are planted on the fertile alluvial plains along the river and can be prone to producing excessive yields.
