Encosta d'Arêgos 'Arêgos' Escolha Alvarinho & Avesso White 2023

Encosta d'Arêgos 'Arêgos' Escolha 2023 represents a masterful pairing of two of northern Portugal's most celebrated white varieties. Avesso, the defining grape of Baião's terroir, joins forces with Alvarinho—the prestigious cornerstone of Vinho Verde—to create a wine of remarkable versatility and depth.

This blend harnesses the complementary strengths of each varietal: Avesso contributes mineral-driven complexity and crisp citrus character, while Alvarinho brings aromatic intensity and elegant acidity. The result is a wine with layered flavor development, where bright stone fruit and herbal notes interplay with subtle minerality on the palate. T

he 2023 vintage captures the freshness and vibrancy these grapes are known for, delivering a wine that's both food-friendly and compelling on its own. Its balanced structure makes it equally suited to seafood preparations, light appetizers, or leisurely aperitif service.

This is a thoughtfully crafted expression that showcases the quality potential when two regional stars align—a testament to the winemaker's understanding of how these grapes complement rather than compete with one another.
