Discover the grape variety: Azal Branco

Lively, light whites best enjoyed young, with a pale golden robe, a nervy palate with very pronounced acidity, and signature aromas of citrus (lemon), green apple, white flowers and fresh herbal notes. A traditional component of Vinho Verde DOC blends (Amarante, Baião, Basto), contributing freshness and slight pétillance to the whites of northwest Portugal. White-skinned mutation of the Azal, autochthonous Portuguese grape from the Minho.
