Elaboration

The original Alvarinho originates from the Vinho Verde wine region in northern Portugal, but in the last ten years, Portugal has allowed other regions to grow the berry. This possibility is being used, and so we have the opportunity to enjoy wines made from Alvarinho berries ripened in the great sunshine.

This white wine is indeed a symbiosis of the authentic Alvarinho and the rocky, sunny Alentejo terroir. When you enjoy it, you'll find fragments of both. The topicality of the Alvarinho is strongly felt here, as is the slight minerality of the Alentejo terrain. This dry wine is airy and easy to drink but has a southern character. This white wine can be kept for at least five to six years on a cool shelf in good conditions.

Taster´s notes

Citrine yellow color with greenish hints and fresh aroma resembling tropical fruits. In the mouth it has a well integrated acidity, it is bulky and persistent. We recommend pairing it with fish and shellfish. We suggest a serving temperature of 12ºC

The Winery

On the hot plains of the Baixo Alentejo, just a few kilometers from the city of Beja, is one of the oldest wine estates in the region. Its vineyards represent decades of history that Henrique Uva has preserved and farmed for many years and which he always wanted to develop as an independent producer. In 2004, he achieved his dream, with the project that goes by the name Henrique Uva/Herdade da Mingorra. The Winery is surrounded by 1,400 hectares of a landscape that can be considered exuberant, with a great diversity of plants and fauna, with several river basins forming veritable oases. The Winery is a true place of worship. A place where modernity and functionality can be found alongside indelible traditional techniques.
