Overview
The origin of Alvarinho takes place between the river and the mountain. The presence
do Alvarinho de Monção and Melgaço extends from the Rio valley
Minho.
The Alvarinho of this sub-region is not very exposed to
influence of the sea and has, as one of the conditions favorable to its
development, the thermal amplitude at maturation, characterized by
for hot days and cold nights. This factor contributes to the protection of
aromas and for the persistence of flavor, retaining its freshness. Young
or more adult, this Vinho Verde always preserves its character when
over the years.
