Top Notes For
Sipping Fine Wine

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!

A bit of cream at first, with lemon and mineral and a hint of grassiness coming through. Clean, crisp finish.
