About the wine
Wine Advisor's Top Tip
- Made by our genius winemaker, Antonio Ventura, this is the first white he's offered us and the perfect example of why Portugal is grabbing all the limelight at the moment.
- Alvarinho is a little bit like the Sauvignon Blanc of Portugal, but think apples and pears, rather than gooseberries, but equal amounts of zippy, fresh citrus finish.
- Pop down the local fishmongers- buy every crustacean you can, invite some friends around, open a couple of bottles of this, and you are in for a good time!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Luis Vieira
- Luis makes exceptional wines (together with Antonio Ventura) because he gets the pick of the best grapes from the local growers. But how, we hear you ask...
- ...he has the inside knowledge on who has the best grapes. We love his wines, and his bulging little black book of great growers!
- If you're looking to get a whole lotta bang for your buck, look no further... Portuguese wines are truly stunning value, with the only reason for this being that very few are yet to catch on. You're way ahead of the curve, so you might want to get to know Luis now, before he's a household name!
