Branco

2011 Alentejano White Blend

Alento Branco is a delightful white blend hailing from the sun-soaked region of Alentejano. This vintage from 2011 showcases a light to medium body that pairs beautifully with a wide array of dishes, making it a versatile choice for any occasion. The acidity is bright and refreshing, enhancing the wine's crisp character and evoking a sense of liveliness on the palate. With a moderate fruit intensity, it reveals notes of citrus and stone fruit that dance harmoniously in every sip. The wine is bone dry, allowing the intricate flavors to shine without overwhelming sweetness, making it an ideal companion for seafood and light salads. Alento Branco is a perfect example of the region's ability to produce elegant and enjoyable wines.

Portugal

Best known for its port dessert wine, Portugal is also home to some seriously worthwhile—though frequently overlooked—red and white table wines. This small country on the Iberian Peninsula has a wide range of climates, allowing it to produce everything from light and crisp whites in the Atlantic-cooled northwest to ripe and juicy reds in the hot and hilly Douro Valley. What often sets apart Portuguese wines is that they are often made from local grapes rather than more familiar international varieties. Difficult to pronounce (but a joy to drink!), common varietals include Touriga Nacional, Tinta Cão, and Loureiro.
