Today I get into a bottle that was gifted to me which is found in Trader Joe’s at a $4.99 price point! It’s a vinho verde from a small region in northern Portugal. In Portugal, vinho verde is super popular and is known as a ‘portuguese wine specialty’.
Who doesn’t love a cheap fizzy wine on a hot day? Check this episode out as I get into the history behind vinho verde, how they make it, what makes it “fizzy” and find out my thoughts on this particular wine I open up today.
Today it’s short, sweet and fizzy.
