more volume than ALLO ~ more stone & pit fruit with less citrus ~ probably better w food while ALLO delivers more aperitif enjoyment

Often referred to as the "Green Wine" of the Vinho Verde region with a concentrated fruit character with notes of pepper spice. Lively acidity gives this wine a zesty boost turning the fruit into a complex dry wine with character, apple and citrus, well balanced on a lingering finish. This wine could benefit from a little aging. Great value. A Fav!

#sommcon Vibrant and flowing - melon rind, honeysuckle, salt, pollen, juicy pear. Rather round for Vinho Verde in a great way.
