Minho, located in the northwest of Portugal, is renowned for its unique and refreshing wines, shaped by its temperate maritime climate and lush, green landscape. The region is particularly famous for Vinho Verde, a light, crisp, and slightly effervescent white wine known for its vibrant acidity and fresh citrus flavours. Vinho Verde is made from a variety of indigenous grapes, including Alvarinho, Loureiro, and Trajadura. Minho also produces charming reds and rosés with bright fruit notes and lively character.
