Tasting - Encostas do Lima Vinho Verde


Name: Encostas do Lima Vinho Verde
Variety: 80% Loureiro and 20% Trajadura
Region: Minho
Country: Portugal
Year: 2010
Price: $4.95

Vintage Cellar Review: Pale golden silver color. Bright floral aromas of peaches, raspberry and honeysuckle with a soft, dry-yet-fruity medium body and a crisp, tart citrus and talc accented finish. A delightful sipper that is sure to please.

My Review: A sweet taste with a slight acidic undertone. There was a tiny feeling of effervescence. A pleasant taste on its own. I could taste that this wine was made from a white grape rather than red, but for the most part it did not stand out to me as unique from any other white wine.

I tasted this wine without food.
