 Tasted by buddy22 on 9/30/2008 & rated 84 points: Nice and crisp with lots of effervescence. Just a little too fruity for my liking, but refreshing and pairs well with food. (4759 views)
 Tasted by jeffal66 on 9/15/2008 & rated 84 points: Light, slightly effervescent. Good with Greek food or just a summer day drink. Like a visit from casual friends, satisfying for a short spell. (4832 views)
 Tasted by good old ludwig van on 9/9/2007 & rated 89 points: This is probably the best Vinho Verde I've had. To some, this may seem damning with faint praise, but I always really get a kick out of these fun, easy drinkers.

This one has really distinct apple cider notes, along with some pear. Good times. (5269 views)
 Tasted by yipen on 7/25/2007 & rated 88 points: good price, quite tart and have plenty acidity. good to pair with grill seafood (5305 views)
 Tasted by JeffnCin on 6/27/2007: cheap, bubbly, perfect for a warm evening (5651 views)
 Tasted by last chance on 2/16/2007 & rated 75 points: Unrevealing nose. Mineral and light white fruit flavors. Very little acidity, mouthfeel, or finish. This wine is for people with blue hair or a really hot day when you are tired of drinking Chardonnay. Not terrible though for around $7. (3752 views)
 Tasted by good old ludwig van on 8/19/2006 & rated 86 points: Clean, fresh scent of lemons. Light and refreshing for a 105-degree day today! Short finish, uncomplicated. (4007 views)
 Tasted by a.fine.cabernet on 7/14/2006 & rated 79 points: Slight effervescence when first opened, but flattened pretty quickly. Grapefruity. (3756 views)
 Tasted by Skully on 5/17/2006 & rated 77 points: Color: Light yellow
Nose: Green apple, chalk
Taste: Mineral water-like with hints of fruit (4175 views)
 Tasted by Xavier Auerbach on 11/15/1996 & rated 82 points: A private tasting: Light, soft but fresh, slight prickle, supple and juicy but short and simple. (1654 views)
