Quinta do Ermizio Alvarinho ‘Vinha da Bouça’ 2023

Vinha da Bouça is Quinta do Ermizio's expression of 100% Alvarinho from Vinho Verde, Portugal. This is a great value bottle – fresh, aromatic, and full of fruit with a zesty freshness!

The current Quinta was established in 1984 with the construction of the winery, and has been making wine in much the same style since. Today Quinta do Ermízio is owned and run by Antonio Monteiro, a retired horticulture professor.

What you get is fresh, aromatic Alvarinho with vibrant fruit and zesty freshness. This is classic Vinho Verde at its best – crisp, clean, and incredibly drinkable. Alvarinho is the premium grape of the Vinho Verde region, known for producing wines with more body and complexity than the typical light, spritzy Vinho Verde, while maintaining that characteristic freshness and acidity.

The wine shows what makes Alvarinho special – aromatic intensity, fresh fruit character, and that zesty quality that makes it so food-friendly and refreshing. This is honest, straightforward Portuguese white that over-delivers for its price, showing the quality and consistency that comes from decades of winemaking experience.

Serve it well-chilled as an aperitif, with seafood, grilled fish, salads, or light summer dishes. This is great value Vinho Verde from an established producer, perfect for everyday drinking and those looking for fresh, aromatic Portuguese white wine.
