When the sun’s out and I fancy a wine that’s crisp, light, and just a little bit different, you’ll often find me reaching for Vinho Verde. This Portuguese white wine is citrusy, refreshing, and, for a still wine, has a slightly fizzy texture (sounds odd, but don’t knock it ’til you’ve tried it!). Even if you’re new to Vinho Verde, chances are you’ve heard of the internet’s favourite bottle – Chin Chin. And while it’s a great place to start, it’s definitely not where your Vinho Verde journey should end. There are SO many more bottles out there waiting to be chilled, poured, and enjoyed. One of my latest favourites? The Quinta do Ameal Bico Amarelo Vinho Verde 2023.
