Arinto is a white grape variety primarily grown in Portugal, particularly in the regions of Bucelas, Tejo, and Vinho Verde. It produces wines with high acidity and fresh, citrus flavors, often complemented by notes of green apple and mineral undertones. The ABV for Arinto wines generally ranges from 11-13%. Arinto is popular for its crispness and versatility, making it suitable for both young, fresh wines and more complex, aged styles.
The diverse Portuguese terroirs, with their varying climates and soils, allow Arinto to express a range of characteristics. In Bucelas, the grape thrives in clay-limestone soils, producing wines with a pronounced mineral edge. Arinto's high acidity also makes it a key component in many Portuguese blends, contributing to the country's reputation for vibrant and well-balanced white wines. Its adaptability and consistent quality ensure its continued popularity among wine enthusiasts.
