VIA LATINA ALVARINHO Dry White Wine
Alvarinho (a.k.a. Albariño) is one of the few grapes Spain and Portugal have in common. It displays clean and crisp stone fruits, such as peaches and nectarines, along with hints of white fruits such as apples and pears. The wine’s long finish exhibits a surprisingly creamy texture while a subtle almond note underscores the other flavors. Though most Vinho Verde shipped to the states possesses some degree of effervescence, one will encounter no bubbles in this varietally labeled Vinho Verde, just concentrated fruit and mineral components, making it ideal for pairing with mussels, shrimp, scallops, or even ceviche. Via Latina has won numerous awards from Highest in quality to packaging.
Serving temperature: 53°F Suggested food pairing: mussels, shrimp, scallops, or even ceviche.
