Orte Nortico Alvarinho 2024

Nortico comes from small vineyard plots in Monção and Melgaço, on the border with Spain's Galicia province, known as the best Alvarinho-growing area in Portugal. Unlike other wines from the larger Vinho Verde area, Nortico has no added CO2, making for a richer, fuller, well-balanced wine. Albariño/Alvarinho is the grape to watch for age-worthy, world-class wines, and Nortico is the perfect introduction.

100% Alvarinho (Albariño). Sustainably grown vines planted from 1910-2005 in granite soil at 20-250 m (68-820 ft) elevation.
