Altano Branco comes from Symington Family Estates in Portugal’s historic Douro Valley, where a tradition of winemaking spanning five generations underpins a range of high‑quality table wines. Grapes for Altano Branco are grown in higher‑elevation vineyards across the region, including areas such as Lamego, Alijó and Favaios, where cooler temperatures help preserve natural acidity and aromatic intensity.
Tasting Notes:
Pale yellow with bright, fresh aromatics, this wine offers lively citrus and tropical fruit scents, including green apple, lychee and passion fruit, with subtle floral touches. The palate is crisp and refreshing, with zesty lemon and lime characters, gentle tropical notes and a clean, vibrant finish.
Winemaking:
Made from a blend of traditional Douro white grape varieties such as Malvasia Fina, Viosinho, Moscatel Galego and Arinto, the wine is fermented in stainless steel at controlled temperatures to retain purity of fruit and freshness. Minimal ageing in tank ensures crisp acidity and aromatic clarity are preserved.
Food Pairing:
Pairs beautifully with fresh seafood, grilled fish, shellfish, fresh salads or light Mediterranean dishes — styles that highlight the wine’s citrus drive and vibrant acidity.
