Alandra White 75cl. 2021

In the glass, Alandra White shows a clear, pale citrine colour. On the nose, it opens with floral notes and fresh fruit aromas, leading into a palate that feels youthful, clean and well balanced. The overall style is crisp and bright rather than heavy, making it a very versatile bottle to keep chilled for casual lunches, light dinners or warm-weather sipping. Oaks & Corks lists the 2021 bottling at 12.5% ABV, in a 75cl bottle, with a screw cap closure and Portugal as the country of origin.

A nice detail about the Alandra range is that it sits within Esporão’s wider philosophy of dependable, accessible wines. Current producer information for Alandra highlights a fresh, fruity house style and integrated agricultural practices, while retailer and trade listings for the wine commonly reference a blend built around traditional Portuguese white grapes such as Arinto, Antão Vaz and Perrum for the broader Alandra Branco line. That combination helps explain the wine’s mix of citrusy lift, soft fruit and smooth drinkability.

This is the kind of white wine that works beautifully when you want something uncomplicated but still well made. Serve it well chilled as an aperitif, or pair it with grilled prawns, fresh fish, chicken dishes, creamy salads or simple white meat plates. For shoppers building a basket, it also fits naturally alongside other refreshing bottles from the White Wine collection or the broader Wine selection at Oaks & Corks.

Accolades

I could not verify a 2021-specific award for Alandra White from the producer’s official pages. What I did find is that the Alandra Branco line has received 85-point Wine Enthusiast scores for other releases, including older vintages and non-vintage listings, which supports its reputation as a reliable, good-value Portuguese white. To keep this page accurate, it is best not to present those scores as a confirmed award for the 2021 vintage itself.
