Chibu is a field blend of many different varieties found in the local vineyards. Old vineyards in the region are not planted to one variety, rather they were planted with a huge mix of varieties. Baga, Jaen, Bical, Fernao Pires are the main varieties in the mix here, but the blend is thought to contain up to 20 varieties in total. The wine is made from about 80% red grapes and 20% white.
