Extremadura, Spain – 100% Alarije Dorado
A rare Spanish variety which offers vibrant aromas of grapefruit, box tree, fennel, anise, and a touch of Williams pear. The palate is light and fresh, balancing bright acidity with a fruity core and a lingering finish. A historic grape, its name originates from the Arabic word “al‘arīš”, a nod to the cultural influences that shaped Spain’s viticultural heritage. Alarije thrives in Extremadura’s hot, dry climate while maintaining lively acidity. Pair with grilled seafood, fresh goat cheese, or citrus-dressed salads for a refreshing match.
