Quinta da Lixa 2010

15.5 / 20
Producer: Quinta da Lixa
Region: Minho
Country: Portugal







Straw colored, this Vinho Verde has lots of tropical fruits in the nose (lychees, for instance), flowers and a hint of vegetable. A very fresh, very enticing bouquet.


Quite dry on the palate, revealing several layers of not so sweet tropical fruit, green grass and flowers. A touch of gas keeps it very light, along with a crisp, fresh acidity. Typical dry, acid finish leaving a sense of freshness in the aftertaste. A definite summer wine for a very reasonable price.
