Quinta da Raza, Single Vineyard Azal 2022

Get to know: Quinta da Raza, Single Vineyard Azal 2022, Vinho Verde DOC, Portugal

A crisp, lively white from a single vineyard in northern Portugal’s Vinho Verde region. Fresh, zesty and beautifully precise.

Tasting Note

This Portuguese white wine showcases the Azal grape, known for its vibrant acidity and bright citrus flavours. Expect a fresh nose of green apple, lemon zest and white flowers, followed by a zippy, mineral-driven palate that’s both refreshing and clean. The finish is dry and invigorating, with a lovely length.

It’s a great example of a pure, varietal Vinho Verde that delivers punchy freshness without being overly simple.

Top food pairings:

  • Fresh pea and mint soup
  • Grilled lemon chicken with herbs
  • Cheese: feta or young Manchego

Perfect for brightening up light meals or simply enjoying as a crisp, refreshing aperitif.

Kate Says

“I love how clean and precise this wine is. Azal can sometimes be overlooked, but here it really shines with its zesty character and minerality. It’s super versatile and makes a brilliant summer sipper or a great match for lighter dishes.”
