Natalie's Score: 87/100

Lime and lemon essence on the nose. Extremely crisp, refreshing and clean on the palate with marvellous mouth-watering acidity for a wide range of dishes from seafood to salads. Finishes with dried herbs, more green citrus and a long core of minerality. As fresh as a mountain spring sourced deep inside the cavernous soils. Try it with vegetarian dishes.

Alvarinho food pairings: steamed prawn in garlic and lemon sauce, king crab in lemon butter, steamed mussels.

Deu La Deu (2016) is a Portuguese Alvarinho from Monção E Melgaço, in the Vinho Verde wine region. Alvarinho is so fresh with mouth-watering acidity and this one does not disappoint with its citrus, fresh and dried herbs flavours and mineral core. Fantastic for seafood and should always be enjoyed chilled and fresh. Established in 1958, Adega de Monção produces well-known and respected Vinho Verde wines. From the sub-region of Monção E Melgaço, this crisp, acidic white wine is made from 100% Alvarinho grapes. - Community Wine Reviews
