A yellow colour, elegant white wine with aromas of citrus, minerals and hints of tropical fruit. Intense and aromatic taste, an excellent balance, a creamy structure ending in a beautiful aftertaste
Hard to resist, but still much better after 5 to 10 years of bottle aging
Food-Pairing
Ideal with grilled oily fish dishes such as salmon and seafood, oysters or lobster au gratin, roasted white meat dishes such as salad chicken with almonds. Also delicious with asparagus in butter sauce
Grapes: 100% Alvarinho
The Alvarinho, called Albariño in Spain, is a white grape variety. In the region of Vinho Verde, the grape is the most important, but also in Rias Baixas (Galicia) good wines are produced. The grape has a thick skin and a reasonable yield. The alcohol content of the wines is quite high. The wines have fruity aromas where apple usually has the upper hand. The grape likes a soil of slate or granite and probably has a DNA connection with the Riesling
