Producer Description

ALLO has a yellow and silvery-bright colour. In this blend, Alvarinho, full of tropical fruit and structure, contrasts with Loureiro, floral and delicate, resulting in a lively yet elegant white wine. The moderately low alcohol content contributes to the wine’s balance.

Wine Spectator: 90 Points

This creamy white is light on its feet and elegant, layering light juiciness and a silky texture with notes of star fruit, kiwi, grapefruit peel, lemon thyme and creamed almond. Lightly spiced and minerally on the finish. Loureiro and Alvarinho. Drink now. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 16,667 cases made, 100 cases imported.

Wine Advocate: 90 Points

The only non-Alvarinho wine here in this report is the 2023 Allo, a blend of two grapes: 30% Alvarinho and 70% Loureiro. The Alvarinho provides structure, while the Loureiro imparts more balsamic notes, with florals and aromas of bay leaf (what is what Loureiro means in the Portuguese language). It has only 11.5% alcohol and is light and fresh with very good acidity. It's young and aromatic, pale and clean. Very easy to drink. The full clusters were pressed, then the must fermented in stainless steel and the wine was kept with lees for two months.
