Community Tasting Note

Sunday, August 26, 2012 - Probably the lightest wine I have ever given a 90+ score, this is *the* Summer wine. The nose is slightly zesty, otherwise relatively uninteresting, but on the palate it's all about the very dry, tart cooking apple, lime zest and super acidity, lifted by a slight frizzante prickle. Light enough to drink as an aperitif, ballsy and acidic enough to pair with almost anything on the lighter side (if I ate seafood, I'd probably be waxing lyrical right now). This has really encouraged me to explore more Txakolina, and I will forego almost any Vinho Verde for this bottle, especially given that its' $15 and widely available. One of the most refreshing wines I've ever tasted.
