Anselmo mendes Parcela unica alvarinho 2020

A Vinho Verde from Portugal, made with Alvarinho from the 2020 vintage. A quick word on the grape: Alvarinho is a premium Portuguese white grape, the star of Vinho Verde, giving aromatic, crisp wines with peach, citrus and a saline freshness. Vinho Verde is meant to be drunk young and fresh — it's light, low in alcohol and often has a tiny, refreshing prickle of fizz. Portugal is a goldmine of native grapes, from the zippy whites of the green northwest to the muscular reds and legendary Ports of the Douro Valley. It comes from a single vineyard plot, if you like that kind of detail. Serve it ice-cold with shellfish, grilled fish or a sunny lunch. Serve it well chilled.
