DOC, Sub-Regiao DO Lima
Coop De Ponte Do Lima Loureiro

Light yellow, with tints of green, in the glass.

Orange marmalade on the nose.

Lemon driven, with a hint of orange and peach, light bodied, lightly effervecent, mouthwatering, tingly acidity, peppery, very clean and refreshing, crisp.

Peppery on the mouthwatering finish.

Purchased at $13.95 (Canadian).

Bruce - I hate to tell you that I saw that exact same wine for $6.99 here in NJ. I hope the provincial government is doing something worthwhile with all that money they must be making off wine sales! Amazing what QPR one gets from vinho verdes. Even the dirt common Casal Garcia NV is highly drinkable.
