Tasting #1 - Encostas do Lima Vinho Verde


Name: Encostas do Lima Vinho Verde
Variety80% Loureiro, 20% Trajadura
Region: Lima
Country: Portugal
Year: 2010
Price: $4.95

Shop reviewPale 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: Very light pale yellow appearance. The smell reminded me of flowers but I couldn't say which ones. There wasn't an overwhelming taste. It was light, fruity, and citrusy. Compared to other wine I've tasted it was bubblier. The finish was light and didn't linger.

I tasted this wine without any food.
