Loureiro is a white grape variety native to northwestern Portugal, particularly the Minho region. It is a key component in Vinho Verde production and is known for producing crisp, refreshing wines with natural acidity.
Flavors & Aromas
Citrus, green apple, stone fruit, white flowers, and herbaceous notes with a distinctive mineral quality
Winemaking & Aging
High acidity and low alcohol content make it ideal for Vinho Verde production. The wines are typically light-bodied, fresh, and best consumed young. Loureiro can also produce more serious still wines with good aging potential when vinified in a traditional style.
