Terras de Alter 2015 Terra d’Alter Alvarinho (Alentejano)

Country: Portugal / Terra d’Alter
Variety: Alvarinho Alentejano
Winery: Terras de Alter /

The Alvarinho grape, more at home in northern Portugal, makes a fine wine in the Alentejo hill country northeast of Lisbon. Here the flavors are tropical: ripe pineapple, a touch of spice and just the right amount of acidity. The wine will be better from 2017.
