Description
In a nutshell:
A tangy, spritzy and crisp Vinho Verde from northern Portugal.
The lowdown:
Vinho Verde comes from the bit of Portugal that sits north of Oporto and south of the Spanish border. Once a rough and ready wine, it was made only really for local consumption only. However, modern incarnation are much more accessible while, all the time, retaining its characteristic spritz. And the good examples, like this, are superbly bright and refreshing. This one's made from a blend of local Loureiro, Arinto and Avesso grapes and gives a wine that has a crisp floral aroma with grapey, peachy and even pineapple hints on the tongue while the spritz gives it a real lift. Just what you're looking for.
The Producer:
Casa de Vila Nova, named after the family's 12th-century estate, was transformed into a modern winemaking operation by Luís Lencastre in the years leading up to 2000. Significant investment in machinery and equipment for both the winery and vineyards marked the beginning of this new era. Since then, they've steadily built a reputation for producing good quality vinho verde while further expanding their vineyards. The wines offer a fresh and vibrant taste of the Entre-Douro-e-Minho region.
When to drink:
If you like just a soft spritz try it as an alternative to prosecco. Great just by itself, or with salads, sushi and grilled fish.
Suitable for Vegans
