Lima Loureiro D.O.C. 2013 Vinho Verde, $8.09-$10.99, 87 points, $8.09-$10.99, 87 points, poured a molten glossy gold color.
Fresh-cut grass and lime on the nose were good.
Off-dry, this nearly medium-bodied white wine from Portugal showed good acidity with flavors of green melon rind, kiwi, and lime, all of which went down tart and tasty.
Finished long on the trailing palate with a well integrated 11.5% alcohol.
Not having had but few Vinho Verde white wines, there is a red Vinho Verde as well (not found-yet), the QPR always seems good. Like, man, you can't go wrong trying these wine!

Slightly sparkling?
ReplyDeleteSuppose to be, but in my limited experience with this wine I've had just a hint in the Arca Nova. Good question though!
