Reviews and Ratings

From Vinho Regional Minho, Nortico 2021 Alvarinho is produced from small lots of grapes sourced from Moncao e Melgaco, a subregion located on the south bank of the Minho River on the northern border between Portugal and Spain's Galicia province. The Alvarinho vines were planted in 1910 to 2005. Alvarinho is always fresh and crisp and this example is fresh and floral with ripe peach, lemon, grapefruit zest, finishing crisp and zesty on a briny mineral note. Chill and enjoy it with seafood dishes or salads. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
