Light yellow, slightly golden colour. Light and delicate, a bit fizzy, various citrus notes. Too insubstantial for a Vinho Verde. Refreshing in hot weather.

Quite a delicate nose, becomes a little tropical with time in the glass. A little bit of spritz on opening. Fresh and lively with a limey character. Good depth of flavour although very linear and a little one dimensional.

tasted at huge blind wine tasting party (and the days that followed):
fizzy and annoying white grapefruit initially, this gained a few points for being a sturdy wine that lasted well over a couple days in fridge.

Poor excuse of Vinho Verde. Vaguely citrusy as I imagine a beaker of citric acid might be
