Vinho Verde Rose is a rare treat as red grapes traditionally have had a hard time ripening in the region. Due to climate change the trend is starting to fade and we are seeing more of this delight being produced.
A zesty and fruit forward nose prepare you for the joy that is drinking this wine. Fresh strawberries, watermelon with lemon zest, a touch of sea salt and a subtle fizz make this the perfect summer rose.
Throw in some fresh fruit (strawberry, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry) and have a "Summer Sangria"
The wine is crafted to be vegan and will pair with most light vegan food. Try it with a little crudite and a roast red pepper dip. The smoky and savory nature of the dips will be the perfect counter to the fruit and minerality in this wine.
