Márcio Lopes, Pequenos Rebentos Alvarinho 2022
Márcio Lopes studied as an engineer, but cut his winemaking teeth working for two years with Vinho Verde master Anselmo Mendes in Melgaço. He then traveled to Australia where he made wine in Rutherglen and Tasmania, returning to Portugal in 2010 to start his own projects in his native Vinho Verde. His wines reflect his trademark style: channelling the vibe and essence of the region into balanced, hugely drinkable wines. Pequenos Rebentos Alvarinho 2022 is made using 100% sustainably farmed Alvarinho; the grape for which Vinho Verde is best known. The grapes were harvested and left on their fine lees for seven months to increase the wine's texture and complexity. Fresh and vibrant, showing bright and clear citrussy-salty flavours - with crisp acidity and a balanced texture. Partners well with seafood and creamy sauces.
