Terras do Minho Vinho Verde 2020

Remember the 90s, when Australia had to wait months, sometimes years to enjoy sitcoms, movies and fashion from the States and Europe? Not any more! Fresh off the boat and to your door comes 2020 Vinho Verde - just in time for Euro summer!

‘Vino Verde’ or green wine is named after the region from which it comes. It’s young white wine that is produced in the cold north and drunk country-wide as a match with their also famous seafood. There’s a bit of a spritz upon opening and the wine is light and bright, herbaceous and a bit grassy. Imagine riesling meets sauv blanc. It’s a great, refreshing style for anytime, not overly fruity, but rather minerally and textural and would play a wonderful supporting role with food. It’s a touch lighter than many whites at 10.5% alcohol - perfect for a long lunch.
