Casa de Vila Verde 2008 Alvarinho (Minho)

  • Online Exclusive
  1. $16
A surprisingly broad wine for the Vinho Verde region, rich almost. It has a ripe, Chardonnay-like character, creamy and full-bodied. That said, there is also a crisp element, coming through as pink grapefruit and soft pear skins. The finish is all freshness and spice.  — R.V.  (11/1/2009)

Alvarinho gives a rounded, lightly honeyed character to this rich wine. The flavors of baked apple and crisp citrus dominate, with a full feel to the ripe aftertaste.  — R.V.  (11/1/2011)

Casa de Vila Verde 2007 Alvarinho (Vinho Verde)

Bright and fresh, a great mouthful of lemongrass spices, lime and tight, young flavors of grapefruit. The acidity suffuses the wine, lifting it, giving the fruit a vivid character. There is a clean, mineral aftertaste.  — R.V.  (11/1/2008)

Casa de Vila Verde 2006 Orpheu Brut Espumante Arinto (Espumante Portugal)

  • Online Exclusive
Sparkling Vinho Verde is a popular style in Portugal, and the wine, with its unique freshness, does lend itself to bubbles. The acidity is fine, refreshing, tightly crisp. There is some yeastiness that doesn’t sit totally comfortably, but the for the rest, it seems the Portuguese have something.  — R.V.  (11/1/2009)
