Arinto – the fresh soul of Portuguese white wine
Arinto is one of the most exciting white grape varieties in Portugal. What distinguishes it: a natural, lively acidity that gives the wine freshness and structure even in warmer sites. In the glass, Arinto typically shows bright, citrus-toned fruit, a certain minerality, and a dry, clear finish – wines that wake you up and whet your appetite.
Versatile throughout Portugal
Arinto grows in various Portuguese regions and adapts to the respective terroir. In the cool Vinho Verde, particularly light, zesty white wines with a fine effervescence are created – perfect as an uncomplicated aperitif or with seafood. In the Douro and other warmer sites, the variety brings more body and depth, but always remains characterized by its signature freshness. Arinto is also found as a component in white Port wines, where it brings liveliness to the blend.
