Wine with food oysters
Which wine goes with oysters?
Oysters are briny, mineral and creamy. They want a taut, mineral white with plenty of freshness. Alvarinho from northern Portugal is a classic match, as is dry sparkling wine.
Our pick
White · Minho
Aveleda Solos de Xisto Alvarinho
Mineral and briny-fresh, with a creamy undertone from nine months on the lees. Alvarinho is the classic with oysters — and, says Nelson, the best.
