    Quinta Da Raza Vinho Verde - A Lip Smacking Good Time

    By: Jon Thorsen Published: February 27, 2016 Last Updated: October 1, 2021

    Quinta Da Raza Vinho Verde - A Lip Smacking Good TimeA perfect wine for the American palate and wallet.

    50% Arinto, 35% Azal and 15% Trajadura from Vinho Verde, Portugal. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and has a residual sugar of 8.3 g/L.

    This review is brought to you by Vinho Verde Wines.

    The Quinta Da Raza Vinho Verde has an average price of $10 and is available for as low as $8. Imported by MatadorVino. 8,300 cases produced. Sample submitted for review.

    From the bottle:

    Raza is a special blend produced from the Vinho Verde native white grape varieties.It is a very fresh, crispy and fruity white wine. This wine can be drunk on its own, or it is also delicious when served with salads, fish, seafood or poultry dishes. Serve at 8-10C.

    11.5% Alcohol

    As we mentioned a few weeks ago in our introduction to Vinho Verde, we'll be highlighting some of our favorites over the next few months. We start that off today with a wine that would be hard not to like.

    The 2014 Quinta Da Raza Vinho Verde begins with a very pleasant aroma of lemon, lime, a little fresh baked bread and banana. This fun to drink wine tastes fresh, tart and slightly bubbly with lots more lemon/lime and touches of tropical fruit and grapefruit. It is, quite simply, a perfect wine for American wine drinkers that prefer their whites on the sweeter side and their prices low. The wine finishes crisp and not too sweet thanks to the good acidity and the bubbles. Like so many of the wines from this region, it is also very food flexible so feel free to pair away!
