- Mapreco Vinho Verde 2012 Product #27192 (In Stock)

Nothing says "Spring" (or Summer!) like the new crop of Portugal's famous "green wine", Vinho Verde. Bottled from tank without racking, the 2012 Mapreco has the classic spritz of tingling bubbles you'd expect with plenty of apricot and tangy orange/tangerine fruit. There's a brothy, seltzer-like, hint of the sea here, too, with a bright and citrusy finish. Light (just 10% alcohol) and very fun.
- Aviva Vinho Verde 2012 Product #27198 (In Stock)

Literally translated as "Green Wine," Vinho Verde really means young, fresh, wine that's ready to enjoy starting the spring after the harvest. Made from an assortment of native Portuguese grapes (in this case 100% Loureiro), it's raised in tank and bottled without racking, leaving the barest trace of dissolved gas in the wine to prickle on your tongue. Tangy apricot and green peach fruit, fresh flowers, and a bright, lemony, acidity all shine in this light (just 11.0% abv) white to enjoy on its own or with fresh salads or fish.

This family-owned Port producer in the Douro Valley alsm makes terrific dry wines, like this blend of old-vine Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca and Tinta Amarela. Ripe, almost boisterous, aromas of blackberry, black plum and raspberry with pretty accents of violets and a touch of eucalyptus. In the mouth still youthfully compact but loaded with juicy black plum, raspberry and a hint of dark chocolate. Softly textured with with terrific drive and lingering tangy plum and spice flavors over ripe, silky, tannins.

- Quinta Dona Matilde Porto Colheita 2001 Product #26521 (In Stock)

"Colheita" means a single-vintage Tawny port, and this one is a beauty. Medium-sweet and nutty with hints of red fruit, caramel, and toasted nuts, this hand-crafted wine is super elegant and complex and finishes long and nutty. Try it cool on it's own or with everything from Stilton cheese, candied nuts, or - one of my favorites - pecan pie!
