A happy, easy-going, spritzy white wine that enjoys a tangy lemon-lime freshness, wallet-friendly pricing, and an unexpected versatility. Youthful, ultra-approachable and uncomplicated, this bottle shines bright as a clean, refreshing wine that is both easy to drink and easy to find.

Pale with green glints and light spritz, with delicate fruit and aromatics of fresh honeydew melon and cucumber, balanced acidity, well integrated spritz (carbon dioxide is injected at bottling). Poised, with medium length, this is a very well-executed (if pricy), easy-going, low alcohol Vinho Verde that is clean, ripe, fresh and fruity. It was produced at Sogrape-owned Quinta de Azevedo in the Barcelos sub-region.
