Quinta do Ameal Loureiro Vinho Verde 2021

Size: 750ml

Wine Advocate: 90

"With the color of bright citrine, the bouquet is intense, dominated by citrus fruits and the floral aromas characteristic of the Loureiro grape. On the palate this wine is vibrant and balanced with a refreshing acidity that anticipates a good evolution. While this wine is ready to drink, it will also age well in its first few years." —winemaker

"The 2021 Loureiro is the winery's classic version—meaning "unoaked." It comes in at 11.6% alcohol, less than 1.5 grams of sugar and 7.3 of total acidity. This was only in bottle about two weeks, but I was assured it was showing well. Well, it's a little disjointed, but you can see all the stuffing there to make a classic Ameal, including the big acidity, silky texture and subtle concentration. This is something that should age well, as always, but it will get better. Hopefully, it settles into the right place. For all of its bottling issues, it is in a better place now than the bigger 2019 Reserva. As time goes on, they may separate more, in favor of the 2019; but for the moment, this is as strong competitor. There were 43,800 bottles produced." —Wine Advocate

Adega Mae Viosinho 2019 Size: 750ml

"Viosinho imposes itself as one of the most extraordinary grape varieties of our terroir. Combines the fruity notes of its grape variety, with deep minerality (derived from our more calcareous soils), very lively acidity and a saline and deep finish. Present in our most noble white wines and, of course, also bottled as a single grape variety – pairing with all kinds of fish and seafood!" —winemaker

Wine Anthology Team Review-One of my new favorite white wines! Crisp acidity and sublime, fruit flavors roll into wonderful minerality and a completely satisfying finish. Like a Gruner Vetliner met an un-oaked Chardonnay. Simply delicious! A must try! Have this one with citrus grilled Tamboril. Cheers!

"Aveleda is produced in our winery with grapes from the Vinho Verde region — the most extensive in Portugal. The careful temperature control during the winemaking process produces a wine that is slightly citrine in color, clear and bright. Its gentle and fruity aroma gives it a smooth, delicate flavor." —winemaker

Matchbook Old Head Chardonnay 2020 Size: 750ml

44348
"The 2020 vintage of Matchbook Chardonnay is notable for the rich fruit flavors that developed over the long growing season. The color is classic California golden straw. The flavors are full of the tropical notes that have become a signature of our Dunnigan Hills Chardonnay: pineapple, mango, melon, and papaya. 60% malolactic fermentation adds a creamy texture; oak aging adds a touch of vanilla and crème brûlée. This delicious Chardonnay has a satisfyingly plump mouthfeel that is balanced by the crisp, fresh fruit that lingers in the finish. Pair this easy drinking Chardonnay with buttery scallops, grilled chicken, or pasta with a cream sauce." —winemaker

"Crafted in the heart of Italy, La Marca Prosecco Rosé sparkles with lively effervescence. Shining from the first toast to the last sip, our playful pop of pink offers an effervescent new way to enjoy Prosecco. Offering the bright, crisp fruit and floral essence of our traditional Prosecco with the delicate elegance of Pinot Noir, La Marca Prosecco Rosé sparkles with our classic notes of fresh-picked citrus, honeysuckle, peach and pear, blending with hints of ripe red cherry, raspberry and wild strawberry. Refreshing and zesty, this bubbly is perfect for lively soirées and spontaneous celebrations." —winemaker
