This wine has a rich and beautiful cherry red color. Its nose is playful enough, all watermelon candy and apples and strawberries, but with an herbal tilt that seems very elusive. I think the aroma reminds me of some wines made from North American grapes, but that is not the case here. This wine comes from Portugal’s production area known as Vinho Verde. Yes, that translates to “green wine” but it actually means “young wine.” The palate brings a strong showing of cherry, strawberry and a sort of Jolly Rancher note. The acidity is wonderful, delightfully tingly and quite refreshing. An earthy tone of red fruit persists after the sip.

Perfect for a sunny afternoon, light and fruity, with a little carbonation. A perfect wine for a perfect day.

The newly disvovered pink twin sister of the Espiral Trader Joe's vinho verde in the green bottle. This rose blend is affordable, bubblyish, deep reddish color having, and refreshing. Notes of blood, rose petal, iron and red berries.
