About Me

Hi! I'm Christina, and I am a recent graduate from Virginia Tech! I'm in Northern VA now pursuing a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy. I'd like to continue what I learned from the Geography of Wine class I took in Spring of 2012, so I'll be posting about different wines and wine events. I would be very grateful for suggestions, and I'm open to expanding my posts to beer and liquor as well!

Tasting - Santola Vinho Verde


Name: Santola Vinho Verde

Variety: White Blend
Region: Minho
Country: Portugal
Year: Non-vintage
Price: $7.95
Shop Review: Soft and creamy, although with just the right Vihno Verde bite, this is a crisp and clean wine, boasting light pear and pink grapefruit flavors.  Off dry and very fresh.
My Review: The Vinho Verde is a light, almost clear, golden color.  It has a light, fruity aroma with hints of crisp pear.  It has a tart pear taste, along with an fruity taste that is unknown to me.

I had this wine alone without any food.
