Light, crisp and marvelously aromatic. Some vinho verdes resort to a gently spritzy quality for a gossamer texture. Not this one. A white blend of alvarinho and loureiro grapes, it’s technically light, at 11.5-per-cent alcohol, yet with a smooth texture and relatively dense midpalate, with notes of white table grape, apple, citrus zest and flowers. Great as an aperitif. Available in Ontario.
