Aveleda Alvarinho

Aveleda Alvarinho is a refined and award-winning white wine from the Minho region in northern Portugal, crafted exclusively from the Alvarinho grape. Grown in vineyards with granite and schist soils, this Vinho Verde captures the pure essence of its terroir with elegance and precision. In the glass, it presents a clear pale yellow color with golden reflections. The nose reveals an aromatic bouquet of white peach, grapefruit, orange blossom, and delicate floral notes, followed by hints of pineapple and citrus zest. On the palate, it is smooth and well-structured, offering vibrant acidity, minerality, and flavors of ripe white fruits that lead to a persistent, fresh finish.

Aveleda Alvarinho has received multiple international accolades, including 91 points from Decanter, gold medals from the Concurso Vinhos de Portugal and Gilbert & Gaillard, and high ratings from James Suckling and Wine Enthusiast. Best enjoyed chilled (10–12 °C), it pairs beautifully with seafood, grilled fish, rich vegetables, oily fish like salmon, or soft cheeses. This is a beautifully balanced wine that showcases the potential of Alvarinho in its most elegant form.
