The flagship wine from Portugal's famed Vinho Verde region, this Alvarinho has been called the perfect summer white for its ability to pair with lobster, crab, shrimp, scallops, really anything you can get from the sea. Sourced from a 45-acre vineyard surrounding the 19th-century neo-classical palace, Palacio da Brejoeira is a legendary white. Like its cousins from Spain, this vibrant Alvarinho showcases complex floral aromas which reveal a background of citrus and a complex set of ripe tropical fruits. Extremely hard to find, a recent trip to Portugal and visit to Brejoeira was enough to net us a few more cases to promote to our top white wine buyers. Don't miss it!

Wine & Spirits: 94 Points

"Rich and flavorful, feels well above the average Alvarinho, less acidic and more complex with slight hints of tropical flavors and stone fruits. Now made by João Garrido, Brejoeira hit with the 2022 vintage, delivering the kind of rich, smoky alvarinho that had earned its fame, a wine with the stamina to age. This has tense yellow fruit and the kind of pale, oceanic density that would pair beautifully with fresh crab. Delicious wine, and easy to drink a lot of it. Top 100." Wine & Spirits, 94 Points
