Not many red Vinho Verde out there - this was so light I thought it was a Rose’. Delicate & elegant, this wasn’t overly fruit driven but did have a lot of red fruit & flowers. Subtle spice, and an herbaceous note rounded out the flavor profile. Juicy & light on palate, clean crisp, smooth & balanced. Again, not a ton of fruit but just enough to reinforce nose.
