The finest Alvarinho grapes are produced on the coveted sun-soaked slopes of the left bank of the Minho river. The wines from these select grapes have a distinct personality that can only be achieved in the unique terroir of this region. Citrine of colour, with light tones of yellow and revealing a complex aroma showing notes of Peach and Apricot with just a hint of floral and tropical citrus, we can enjoy an engaging and full-bodied wine and with balanced acidity.
