Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Great ripe fruit, with flavors of apricots and touches of toast and caramel to go with the purest lemon juice fruit flavors. It has more weight than an average Vinho Verde, a concentrated wine, bursting with fruit.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Bright pink in color, a caramel flavor resting on taut strawberries and a fresh berry character. There is a touch of apple to go with the light, bright style. Drink this year.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Much of Vinho Verde is red —wine drunk locally and great with sardines. Rosé Vinho Verde is a logical extension, and this fresh-faced, lightly fizzy wine is a delicious crisply off-dry, cherry-flavored wine.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
The Vinho Verde rosé style takes advantage of the high acidity of the red grapes in the region. Casa do Valle’s rosé is bone dry, with an intense level of acidity, raspberry juice, crisp and fresh.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Beautifully fresh wine that also has some weight to it. It is strung on a tightrope of crispness, balanced between white fruits and citrus. There is a great final mineral texture from the granite soils of the Minho.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Made to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Casa do Valle winery, this is an impressively rich Vinho Verde. It is smooth, creamy, with green plum and apricot flavors, the acidity a well-balanced counterpoint.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
It’s rare to find such a full-bodied red from the same region as Vinho Verde. This ripe and juicy wine is packed with delicious velvet plum flavors. There is acidity, but the wine is so sweet and soft. Drink over the next year.
