Quinta das Arcas
Conde Villar Vinho Verde Branco Loureiro Blend
Vinho Verde, Minho, Portugal
Delectable's listing for this wine is misleading - it is hardly correct to call it a "Trajadura Blend" when the wine is only 10% Trajadura - the balance is 50% Loureiro and 40% Arinto. The finished wine has a bit of spritz and a broad palate. Crisp but not overbearing acidity, it's refreshing and would be terrific with grilled seafood

The nose hit me with Dubble Bubble chewing gum, but not in the mouth. Sharp on the tongue, almost effervescent.

Mar 18th, 2018I stopped by tableWINE this evening for a little sumpin-sumpin and I requested a vinho Verde. The lovely proprietess snagged one of these from the shelves. Light, drinkable, very balanced, with notes of grass and dew.

Dec 17th, 2017Gosto bastante de vinho verde, então sou suspeito. Por menos de R$30 (€8,3) esse branco tem aroma floral e é refrescante. Não tem a acidez que eu gostaria, se parece com um chardonnay com algo de friz. Interessante.

Light and fizzy. Nice minerality and hints of summer fruit
