About Sardine Submarine
The Sardine Submarine is a playfully named Portuguese wine that captures the essence of Lisbon's coastal culture. The name invites you to dive through the narrow streets of the Alfama district like a submarine—one that perhaps resembles the city's famous clattering yellow trams—and experience the joy of freshly grilled sardines with a glass of crisp white wine. This vibrant white blend comes from the Setúbal Peninsula, just across the Tagus estuary from Lisbon. Made from traditional Portuguese grape varieties Fernão Pires, Verdelho and Arinto, it delivers bright citrus flavours with a long, zesty finish at a food-friendly 12.5% ABV. The blend is specifically crafted to complement Portugal's 500 miles of Atlantic coastline cuisine. While the playful branding might suggest a novelty wine, the quality inside delivers serious drinking pleasure. The aromatic Fernão Pires brings floral notes, Verdelho adds body and texture, while Arinto provides the trademark acidity that makes Portuguese whites so refreshing. Together they create a wine that's built for summer drinking, seafood suppers and casual entertaining. Whether paired with its namesake grilled sardines, fresh oysters, or simply enjoyed as an aperitif on a warm evening, The Sardine Submarine brings Portuguese sunshine to every glass.
