Tasting- Quintas Melgaço Blue Vinho Verde 2013

Name: Quintas Melgaço Blue
Variety: Vinho Verde
Region: Vinho Verde 
Country: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $10

Winery Review: Refreshingly crisp white wine from Portugal--Vinho Verde is soft, light and refreshing, and is an uncompromising and ideal wine for everyday pleasure. Its bright color and pineapple aromas are followed by citrus notes. The palate is clean and fresh. Vinho Verde is an excellent accompaniment to fish and shell fish, white meats and salads.


My Review: The nose of this wine was very citrusy and flowery. It almost smelled like laundry detergent. The taste definitely had flavors of pineapple along with lemon. The after taste was pleasant and smooth, just an overall delightful wine.
