Vinho Verde, Minho

Espiral

Vinho Verde Rosé Blend

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. — 12 days ago

Floral notes with a sparkling electric touch on the lips and tongue. Almost like a Veuve Cliquot bubbly in wine form. Light mineral flavor. Very bright and almost sweet tart green apple. — 12 days ago
