Quinta de Santiago Vinho Verde, Portugal 2023

The 2023 Quinta de Santiago Vinho Verde is a vibrant white wine from Portugal's Monção e Melgaço sub-region, known for its granite-rich soils and temperate Atlantic climate. This blend of Arinto, Trajadura, and Loureiro grapes offers a crisp and refreshing profile. On the nose, it presents aromas of citrus, green apple, and white flowers, complemented by hints of saline minerality. The palate is lively, with flavors of lemon, pear, and apple, underscored by floral, herb, and spice notes. A zesty lime finish adds to its appeal.
