A single-vineyard wine made from the sought after Alvarinho grape. It’s fuller than the average Vinho Verde, packed with ripe green fruits and flavors of pink grapefruit and white peaches. Drink now. Imported by Signature Imports.

Bright and fresh, a great mouthful of lemongrass spices, lime and tight, young flavors of grapefruit. The acidity suffuses the wine, lifting it, giving the fruit a vivid character. There is a clean, mineral aftertaste.

The estate wine from Vila Verde which is in Lousada in the southern Vinho Verde region. It is a simple wine, fresh, but just too lightweight and bland.

Floral and apple-y, with overtones of smoke and slate that add an intriguing mineral component. Green apple, citrus and chalk flavors finish short and clean. Imported by Signature Imports.

A bright, tight, citrus-flavored wine, with a great mineral streak over fresh, creamy acidity. There are lovely wafts of fresh apple juice. A delicious wine.

A surprisingly broad wine for the Vinho Verde region, rich almost. It has a ripe, Chardonnay-like character, creamy and full-bodied. That said, there is also a crisp element, coming through as pink grapefruit and soft pear skins. The finish is all freshness and spice.

As it should be from the year and the grape, this is a full-bodied wine, with some good green plum flavors. But its intensity of flavor is spoiled by the soft, lightly sugary aftertaste. Imported by Signature Imports.

A delicious floral wine, ideal for summer drinking; there are aromas of green meadows and flavors of crisp grapefruit ripened with apricot. There’s a great dry aftertaste.

Mouth-filling wine, with delicious creamy red apples, some tropical fruits and a fresh, green citric edge. It is rich, full-bodied, layering citric crispness with rich white fruits.

Very nice Vinho Verde, with fresh, green apple and lime aromas and a clean, crisp finish. Maybe a little fuller and plumper than typical, but still balanced, with no shortage of apple and citrus fruit.
