Tasting- Broadbent Vinho Verde

 


Broadbent Vinho Verde Rose, red grape varieties, Portugal, NV, 9.99$

Review: "The most popular white wine from Portugal, is a deliciously refressing, light wine. "Verde", meaning "Green" refers to the hints of lime color. It is an ideal warm weather wine, excellent for lunch and picnics, or an evening apertif. It makes a brilliant pairing with any fish, shellfish and poultry."

 Wine Folly: "The climate extremes in Portugal deliver both lean, minerally whites and robust, high-tannin reds." (pg. 266)

Personal review: This wine was delicious. It was light but fruitier than I expected. I drank this wine in a stemless glass with ice and it was great cold. I did taste some lime but I think I got hints of apple more than anything. It reminded me of scents of flowers. 9/10 would definitely have again.
