Tasting - Aveleda Praia

Name: Aveleda Praia
Variety: Vinho Verde
Region: Vinho Verde
Country: Portugal
Year: 2013
Price: $10

Shop Review: A blend of 40% Arinto, 30% Loureiro, 20% Trajadura and 10% Azal. Full of fruit, a lasting peach flavor targeted with laserlike acidity through the finish. It has the bite of salty ocean air and a lot of zing. For langoustines. -92- Wine & Spirits

My Review: This virtually clear wine has strong fruit flavors that fill the nose from apricot to peach to pear. These flavors carry over into the taste that are mixed with the bitter bite of alcohol that lasts on the tongue.
