The white Síria is an ancient Portuguese grape that produces aromatic wines. On the nose, you can often detect orange, blossom, and acacia. You taste fruit notes of peach and melon.
The Síria grows in various places in Portugal and Spain. The confusing thing is the large number of names under which this grape can be found in the vineyard. In the Douro, they usually call it Síria, but at other times Alvaro de Sousa or Códaga. In the Portuguese province of Alentejo, they prefer to speak of Roupeiro; in the Algarve, they refer to it as Sabro or Crato Branco. In Spain, they call it Malvasia Blanca, Malvaisa Castellana, Malvasia Grosso, etc. But indeed, it is nonetheless not the same grape as the Malvasia..
