Marufo (or Mourisco Tinto) is a red wine variety . It is an old, indigenous variety from northern Portugal .

distribution

In Portugal's grape variety index, the variety ranks 9th among the red varieties with a planted area of ​​5,166 hectares. The early ripening variety gives light red wines with a simple character.
