Tasting- Santola Vinho Verde


•Name : Santola Vinho Verde

•Region: Mealhada
•Country: Portugal

Shop Review: Soft and creamy, although with just the right Vinho Verde bite, this is a crisp and clean wine, boasting light pear and pink grapefruit flavors. Off dry and very fresh.
My description: This wine smelled very fruity with a bit of an alcohol under the fruity elements.  When tasting this wine, I picked up a little fruit that the Vintage Cellar pointed out in their review.  I thought that this wine was crisp and had citrus flavors.

My Review: I really enjoyed this wine.  It was crisp with a little bit of carbonation.  I detected green apple on the nose.  There were refreshing citrus flavors, and it had a dry, tart bits.
