Refreshing and summery, perfect for a nice warm afternoon. Aromas of pear, lemon and lime zest. Perfect afternoon aperitif or enjoy with a cold seafood appetizer.
Curvos 2017 is a great value 100% Loureiro from the Vinho Verde wine region under $15. Pale straw colour in the glass, on the nose the wine is light and citrusy with peachy, citrus and light herbal flavours on the palate.
