Vinho Verde Alvarinho 2020 Magnum - Portugal
Differential: This Alvarinho from the 2020 vintage stands out for its expressive fruit profile and the complexity gained through aging on fine lees (sur lies), which gives it a distinctive creamy texture. It offers an engaging and refined tasting experience, combining the vibrant freshness of the grape variety with remarkable gastronomic structure, further enhanced by the grandeur of the Magnum format.
Contents: Magnum bottle of 150cl (2020 vintage), displaying a bright lemon color. The nose is rich and complex, blending floral notes of violet and orange blossom with aromas of apricot, pear, apple and citrus fruits, delicately complemented by hints of beeswax and brioche.
How to take: On the palate, its lively and vibrant acidity brings freshness and precision, perfectly balanced by a creamy, textured mouthfeel. The result is a harmonious and profound wine with a long, rich and memorable finish.
Harmonization: An ideal Magnum to share at the table, pairing beautifully with structured baked fish dishes, codfish with cream, butter-sautéed shellfish or seafood risotto.
