The Arinto grape variety

It has an open citrus colour. When young it presents citrus notes, sometimes some mineral, being moderately intense. With ageing develops aromas of honey and paraffin. In the mouth it is acidulous with fruit notes of excellent complexity. Very fresh, due to its natural acidity, and aromatically intense.

From an oenological point of view, it is without doubt one of the most valuable Portuguese white grape varieties.
