Tasting Notes
We were lying amongst haybales in a barn with a pick n mix bag of penny sweets and white chocolate mice as we wrote a letter and sealed it in a Manilla envelope before cracking open a bottle of Portuguese Vinho Verde. These wines are known for their crisp acidity, lively sweet fruity flavours, and relatively low alcohol levels of around 10% making this a real refreshing slightly off dry style. Following reduction we enjoyed a peppermint tea, strawberry salad with basil and mint as well as a gooseberry fool, while to taste vibrant sweet red fruits, glazed doughnuts, and a surprisingly light lingering spicy note in the finish.
