Vinho Verde is a simple and fresh, young white wine, best served well-chilled and paired with lighter dishes such as: clams, calamari, mild cheeses or grilled asparagus tossed with almonds...
On the nose you'll discover pears and delicate stone fruit, floral talcum notes and marzipan. The palate is juicy but straightforward with a slight prickle or vivace, to liven it up. Fresh and zesty, it trails white pepper, green herbs and citrus across the finish.
At under $12, it's a buy-by-the-case...
