Tasting - Encostas do Lima Vinho Verde


Name: Encostas do Lima Adega Cooperativa Vinho Verde
Variety: 80% Loureiro, 20% Trajadura
Region: Ponte de Lima (Vinho Verde)
Country: Portugal
Year: 2010
Price: $4.95

Winery 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: Acidic to the point of creating a slight fizzy sensation, but not unenjoyable. A fruity taste remains identifiable. I would surely drink this wine again.

                                                                I tasted this wine on its own, without food.
