Note for Pena de Pato Vinho Verde 2006

At first site, this wine boasts of what Vinho Verde is all about, sweet gentle light green with enough vibrant bubbles to take down a party. The nose follows her cue to release gentle green aromas of lime, green apple, honeydew rind and raw almonds. The tip to the mid-palate, the wine is crisp and dry, displaying just a hint of green pear. Although characteristic in style, the wine lacks in showing a full spectrum of rich lush green flavors. Not bad with the goat cheese however! 2.5/5 August 10, 2007 | Link to this note
