Joao Portugal Ramos's 2023 Alvarinho from Vinho Verde opens with intense white grapefruit zest and flint, then unfolds on the palate with white peach skin and a minerally grip that lingers. Partial barrel fermentation softens the angles without burying what makes Alvarinho sing. Here it's elegant, engaging, and a masterclass in restraint.

Winemaker Notes

The wine is a medium lemon color with intense aromas of white grapefruit zest combined with flint and floral notes of Paper Whites. This 100% varietal Alvarhino is elegant and engaging, with a touch of white peach skin on the palate and a long mineral finish. The partial barrel fermentation rounds out angular edges, but the racy acidity brings you back for another sip.

“The 2021 Alvarinho is unoaked, dry (four grams of residual sugar and 6.2 of total acidity), without fizz and comes in at 13% alcohol. More successful than the Loureiro, this expresses its grape well even while seeming elegant. The purity of the fruit is impressive and it tastes great too, always in a dry and clean fashion.”
