Name: Quinta Melgaco Blue Vinho Verde
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: A light yellow color. Bright, fresh aromas of juicy fruit. Flavors of acidic grapefruit and a hint of lemon came through on the palate. Very light-bodied. Overall I thought this wine was just okay. Like the above review, I think it would be complimented well with seafood. 

I tasted this without food.
