The Alvarinho grapes for this wine are grown in the best area in Portugal for this variety, Monção e Melgaço; and the estate on which the vines are located has been in operation since 1640. Here, Quinta de Paços continue to make what are considered one of the country’s best white wines. It’s bold and bright, full of racy citrus, ripe and juicy stone and tropical fruits, honey, jasmine and sea salt. Capable of aging for fifteen years (or more!) this is an exquisite example of what Alvarinho can achieve.
