Reviews and Ratings

Beverly Crandon rated this wine as 87/100 with the following review:

On colour, this vinho verde shows a pear skin colour, but yet clear and stunning. On the nose, you grab scents of citrus fruit blended with green apple and on the palate, you get that citrus fruit taste blended with slight spice to give you a well rounded finish.
Drink Wine and Giggle Gals rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

When the Drink Wine and Giggle Gals go out for dinner we like to taste wine from a country we'd like to visit. Last night it was Portugal, more specifically Minho--the region north of Porto that many Portuguese considered to be the most beautiful part of their country. Lynne swore she could taste a Minho ox cart traveling down a cobblestone street in Quinta da Aveleda's Vinho Verde--not as bad as it sounds, but not the stuff of great wine either...we'll give it a pleasant rating and choose a slightly higher elevation for our next "trip" to Portugal.
Holly Bruns rated this wine as 84/100 with the following review:

Some nice aromas in this glass with citrus, pear, ginger and a hint of floral; crisp and refreshing on the palate this wine would be a great match for the table.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
