Featuring mouth-watering acidity and a refreshing character, these wines include whites such as Pinot Grigio, Vinho Verde and unoaked Chardonnay. Savour their bright acidity, floral and fruity flavours, like lime, apple and lemon, alongside seafood and chicken dishes.






Aromatic White Wines

From Chenin Blanc to Riesling to Sauvignon Blanc, these wines have more intense aromas and robust flavours. Their zesty, approachable acidity makes them a good match to a wide range of foods, including fish, chicken, salads and pork.

Full-Bodied White Wines

Oaked Chardonnay, with its rich flavours and minerality, is the most well known within the full-bodied wine group. With noticeable weight and texture, these wines are well-suited for pairing with rich, buttery foods, such as pork, lobster, salmon and roast chicken.
