The taste is crisp and mostly dry with flavors of mead, pear, green apple, and lime on a lightly effervescent medium body. The finish is long and moderately low in bitterness, featuring notes of grape leaves, lime zest, wine gums, and mineral water. Overall, it&#8217;s drier and perhaps more complex than the Broadbent Vinho Verde, but I think I preferred the refreshing fruitiness of that one, this feels closer to a pinot grigio with a splash of lime juice.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"header-container\">\n<header class=\"u_main-header\">\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nav-container\">\n<nav class=\"u_main-nav isOpen\">\n<div class=\"search-widget-container\">\n<div class=\"u_search-widget\">\n<div class=\"overlay-container\">\n<section class=\"u_overlay\">\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"overlay-content-area\">\n<article class=\"u_wine-detail-overlay isLoaded\">\n<div class=\"inserted-content\">\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.polanerselections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/PNP307_1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"info-container\">\n<blockquote>\n<div class=\"data-items\">\n<dl>\n<dt>Vintage<\/dt>\n<dd>2024<\/dd>\n<dt>Bottle Sizes<\/dt>\n<dd>1 L<\/dd>\n<dt>Country<\/dt>\n<dd>Portugal<\/dd>\n<dt>Region<\/dt>\n<dd>Vinho Verde<\/dd>\n<dt>Wine Type<\/dt>\n<dd>White<\/dd>\n<dt>Varietals<\/dt>\n<dd>White Blend<\/dd>\n<dt>Varietal Notes<\/dt>\n<dd>Azal, Arinto, Avesso, Trajadura, Loureiro<\/dd>\n<dt>Vineyard<\/dt>\n<dd>The grapes are grown in two areas of Vinho Verde; Amarante and Lousada.
