Vinho Verde means 'green wine' or 'young wine' and originated in the historic Minho province in the far north of Portugal and was officially designated in 1908. Made from local grapes such as Loureiro, Arinto, Trajadura, Avesso and Azal, Vinho Verde is light, fresh and fruity with an effervescent pétillance. It is a lovely summer wine at the beach, poolside or for Sunday brunch with its lower alcohol content.
