The mysterious music of the deep has been part of folklore since ancient times. Whilst we cannot claim that the songs of sirens are anything other than myth, the impact of the ocean on the winemaking of Portugal is without doubt. Providing much-needed counterpoint to the heat of the sun, it allows talented winemakers to achieve wines full of fruit, but also full of subtlety and balance. This sapid Arinto, a variety popular throughout Portugal, is teaming with zesty citrus and refreshing apple qualities.

What our expert thinks...
Fresh, coastal, and quietly captivating, Musica Do Mar Arinto is Portugal in a glass. Grown near the Atlantic's cooling breezes, it's bright and refreshing, with zingy lemon, crisp green apple and a twist of grapefruit. This lively white balances sun-ripened fruit with a clean, saline edge that speaks of the sea. Perfect with seafood, salty snacks or simply sipped as the sun sets.
