Vintage Cellar Review:
"Soft and creamy, although with just right Vinho Verde bite, this is a crisp and clean wine, boasting light pear and pink grapefruit flavors. Off dry and very fresh."
My Review:
This wine is very light in color with just a golden tint. It has a very apple-ish and fruity scent. There's a bit of tang that can be sensed even on the nose. On the palate, it's very sweet... like apple cider loaded with sugar. There's a little tang and carbonation. I actually really liked this wine a lot, so I would definitely recommend it. However, like most of the sweet wines I like, I think moderation would have to be key with this one. Any more than a glass or maybe two in one sitting would be too much.
Pairings: I think this wine would be really good with tuna or mahi mahi because the delicate flavors of the fish would be complemented by the sweet, fruity flavor of the wine.
