This wine comes from the Douro Valley in northern Portugal and is produced from grapes grown in higher altitude vineyards where cooler temperatures provide the ideal conditions for the even maturation of white grapes. The result is a zesty, aromatic wine with tropical fruit flavours and a refreshing crisp acidity. Altano is made by the Symington family, wine producers in the Douro Valley since the 19th century. Famous for its premium port’s, the Symington family launched their Douro DOC wines in 2000 and the result is stunning. Sourced from vineyards based in the Alto Douro. Fresh summer and tropical fruits combine with hints of crisp green apples. This wine has been aged 5 months in stainless steel vats with minimal contact with oxygen in order to retain all the aromatic freshness of the wine.
