Quinta de Azevedo, Vinho Verde, Portugal, 2015

While many Vinho Verdes are cheap and cheerful for a summer's day, this blend of 95% Loureiro and 5% Arinto is a cut above. While restrained on the nose, it offers white floral aromas and lemony intensity. More concentrated than your average style, but keeps the signature identity: a clean finish and a hint of spritz.
