Escolha Vinho Verde Loureiro Blend
Vinho Verde, Minho, Portugal
Dinner with a friend, brief notes this evening.
A very weighty Vinho Verde, color to boot also, all in concrete! Opened three days before we tasted.
60% Loureiro & 40% Pedernã, all Atlantic Coast vineyards.
48 Hour Update:
Nose has cold orange blossom, cut green table grapes, cold pineapple core and sliced white bread.
Palate has waxy yellow tropical fruits, orange-like acidity levels, tart green melon, minor oxidative traits with a long finish. Very impressive V-V!
