About This Wine


Ĝenerala Paixão

Vinho Branco

Our Ĝenerala Paixão is a delicious way to discover the unique wines of Portugal. While Portuguese wine may be less familiar than the wine of its more famous neighbors, it is a remarkable region with a rich winemaking history. The landscape of rolling hills and picturesque valleys is dotted with local wineries called quintas. Portugal is home to many indigenous grape varieties and distinct wine styles, including light and bright white blends like our Vinho Branco. This flavor-filled blend balances sweet fruit and intriguing spice. Complex yet playful, this white blend is a great way to discover a new favorite while switching up your wine routine. To experience each nuance at its best, serve this bottle well chilled alongside salty cheeses, roasted chicken, or fresh fruit salad.

Wine Region


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.

  • A figure representing the Orange tasting note. Orange
  • A figure representing the Citrus Blossom tasting note. Citrus Blossom

Bold floral aromas of honeysuckle and orange blossom jump out of the glass while citrus notes of bright lemon and sweet-tart orange rind coat the palate. A medium-bodied mouthfeel is complemented by beautiful, mouthwatering acid that makes every sip linger.
