Escudo Real Portugese White
A crisp Portuguese white from the Minho, stocked in Commack.
The story behind Escudo Real
Vinho Verde comes from Portugal's green northwest, the Minho region, where cool, wet Atlantic weather keeps grapes high in acid. The wines are bottled young and lean, low in alcohol, often with a light prickle of carbon dioxide and a faint spritz on the tongue. Expect green apple, lime and white flowers over a clean, mineral finish.
