ALVARINHO
Alvarinho is among the most noble Portuguese white varieties, famous for its capacity to create customized wines, both intense and long-lasting.
Mingorra’s Alvarinho is produced from a vineyard planted in 2008 with north exposure, in transition schist-clay soils. The wine is a symbiosis of the variety’s character with the strength of our terroir.

VINTAGE OF 2024 AT HERDADE DA MINGORRA
The start of the 2024 growing season was marked by heavy rainfall, which allowed a good concentration of water in the soil, resulting in good initial development and vigour of the plants. Widespread rainfall in the spring led to heavy mildew pressure, which forced us to intervene in the vineyard.
During the summer, high temperatures and lack of precipitation led to challenging ripenings, and rains in early September precipitated the harvest.
