 Tasted by D.Palermo on 9/10/2021 & rated 89 points: - Light gold color - Quite decent verde, especially given it's a non-vintage and really, really cheap. Notes of lime and green apple. Lightly fizzante. (1693 views)
 Tasted by Oenophile89 on 9/6/2021 & rated 80 points: Great white grape juice for a hot day. Just a hint of an idea of effervescence. Thin, crisp, finishes clean, and a good PVQ at 10/bottle. (1413 views)

83. (1551 views)
 Tasted by kjjamison on 8/15/2020 & rated 85 points: Lightly carbonated. No complexity in high acidity green apple pucker. Refreshing on a hot day to a degree but overall not balanced or flavored in a satisfying way. Yet went quite well with a rich cheesy eggy strata and salad for supper. (1217 views)
 Tasted by capscapscaps on 7/26/2020 & rated 88 points: Perfect, light & refreshing everyday effervescent Vinho Verde. Great QPR under $10. Writing from memory but I recall green apple and not a lot of complexity nor a long finish, but tasted refreshing. Had it in 90 degree weather and paired with bbq shrimp - was a great match. Also had an Albariño that had a longer finish and more structure, so the contrast was interesting, and we liked both. (1386 views)
 Tasted by Coswinetaster on 7/24/2020 & rated 88 points: Llight straw color. Melon and citrus on the nose. Light to medium mouth feel. Dry and effervescent. Green apple,citrus and melon on the palate. Dry medium finish. (1002 views)
 Tasted by Oberhau on 7/18/2020 & rated 88 points: A festive quaffer with a spritz. (885 views)
 Tasted by Madera16 on 7/8/2020: This is an amazing deal. Light as a feather, slightly fizzy, dry finish. Very simple and very enjoyable in hot weather. (794 views)
 Tasted by WhooskeyWine on 6/6/2020 & rated 86 points: Light straw-hued, near translucent. Aromas and flavors of apple, lemon zest, lime, minerals, pear, salt, and stone. Medium-light body and high acidity. Lightly carbonated. A complex nose; a crisp palate; an elegant finish. A blend of Loureiro (50%), Trajadura (40%), and Pedernã (10%). (802 views)
