Quinta de Santiago, Vinho Verde (Portugal) Alvarinho “Sou” 2020 ($30, Premium Portugal Wines)

Wine label

The Quinta de Santiago Sou Vinho Verde Alvarinho 2020 is a standout expression of the Alvarinho grape, known in Spain as Albariño. It is a collaboration between Quinta de Santiago and the renowned winemaker Nuno Mira do Ó, known for his work in Bairrada and Dão. In the glass, it dazzles with bright, vibrant aromas and flavors of lemon, peach, and grapefruit, complemented by a subtle mineral undertone that adds complexity. The wine’s racy acidity makes it very versatile for food pairing, elevating a wide range of dishes. Ready to enjoy now, it also has excellent aging potential.
