Vinho Verde is at the lightest end of the White Central Line. Conde Villar is a dry, refreshing wine that has a little spritz to it, a glass full of lemon zest & fresh green apples.
Vinho Verde is the ideal aperitif wine. It is full of refreshing acidity that gets the taste buds going ready for something to nibble. It is light in flavour & body with an effervescent spritz so is best served with light flavoured foods like seafood & salads.
Conde Villar Vinho Verde is a perfect example of this ‘holiday’ wine, which evokes memories for many of beach holidays on the Portuguese coast, always accompanied by shellfish platters with friends.
Conde Villar hand pick their grapes & ferment at a cool temperature in order to retain all those light bright fruity aromatics. Happily, this travels a bit better than the one you bring back from holiday so you can pop a bottle in the fridge and invoke that holiday feeling even in the winter.
