Vinho Verde is a diverse Portuguese wine origin, from fragrant whites to vivid reds and rosés.

Alvarinho, Arinto, Loureiro.

Vinho Verde DOC is not simply a synonym for young, green-coloured or lightly sparkling white wine. It includes still wines of several colours and sparkling wines, with grapes and subregions shaping the differences. Alvarinho, Loureiro, Avesso and Arinto offer useful white-wine starting points, while Vinhão reveals the red tradition. Check the individual bottle for bubbles and sweetness.
