Where art meets the vine
Alvarinho is a white grape from Portugal’s green, coastal north.
Known for its expressive aromas and bright acidity, it brings to mind sunlit gardens, ocean air, and ripe tropical fruit.
In this painting, scent becomes colour—passion fruit, jasmine, and lychee come together in a light, floral atmosphere.
A painting for those who like to add a scent of summer to their home
This painting was inspired by Alvarinho’s fragrance—elegant and tropical, light but full of personality.
I chose violet and soft purples for the passion fruit, creamy whites for lychee and jasmine, all set against a fresh blue ground.
Together, they capture a mood that is both playful and composed, like a breeze through a flowering garden.
“Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”
Leonardo da Vinci
Alvarinho stands for lightness, ease, and thoughtful joy. It’s a reflection of those carefree afternoons that unfold gently—on terraces, by the sea, or around a table with people who make time feel precious.
Did you know?
Alvarinho grapes are small, thick-skinned, and full of flavour. Though delicate in the glass, they grow surprisingly well in the cool, rainy climate of Portugal’s north. The name comes from “alva,” meaning white or bright—just like the wines it creates.
