Discover the grape variety: Arinto du Dâo

A very old variety known in Portugal and northwestern Spain (Galicia), but practically unknown elsewhere. In Greece, a variety bears the same name, so it could be the same variety. In Spain, however, we must discard the loureiro, whose synonym is arinto.

Although the history of the wine industry is relatively Short, Washington's 900-plus wineries and 350-plus independent winemakers, with more than 50,000 acres of vineyards, now produce more wine than any other state except California. Almost all wine production is in the hot, desert-like eastern Part of Washington, although there is some Grape growing and an AVA (Puget Sound) in the cooler, wetter west.
