Description

Alvarinho Génese Cima (also called CIMA Génese Alvarinho) is a standout white from the Vinhos Verdes region, made by Vinevinu. It's known for its complexity and elegance, and the 2024 vintage scored 92 points from Revista de Vinhos.

CIMA 2024 is a ripe, deep, contemporary interpretation of Alvarinho, masterfully uniting tradition and innovation. Its name reflects the wine's essence and the method that defines it: the fusion of ageing in cement (CI) and oak (MA), a combination that enhances the grape's natural elegance and gives it a distinctive texture and greater complexity.

Aromatic Profile:
An austere, complex wine that steers away from obvious fruit. Delicate nuances of orange peel and orange leaf stand out, with discreet smoky touches from barrel ageing.

Palate and Structure:
Full and enveloping, with hints of ripe orange balanced by lovely tension and presence. The oak is harmoniously integrated, giving structure without compromising freshness.

Rating and Special Notes:
Considered a great Alvarinho, it perfectly illustrates the balance between partial barrel fermentation and ageing in cement eggs, giving an elegant wine of distinctive personality.
