White Wine
The Roussillon and the Regional Lisboa are two up-and-coming regions for white wine, as producers discover them as a source of freshness, depth and age-worthiness. As farming practices improve and finished alcohols come down a little, both regions offer intensity, minerality and sublime food-friendliness, while each expressing their nearby seas in their own special way. The Bucelas DOC is the apotheosis of Arinto, which experts have called the Riesling of Portugal. The rocky valleys of the Roussillon, whether seaside or inland, have yielded white wines that have captivated the world, using autochthonous grapes such as Macabeu and Grenache Blanc.
