Broadbent Vinho Verde
Broadbent's Vinho Verde is a vivacious and refreshingly spritzy white wine that champions crisp citrus and orchard fruit. At a notably low alcohol (around 9%), it delivers bright lemon-lime freshness, a touch of melon, and vibrant minerality—making it a perfect warm-weather classic.
Tasting Notes & Style
-
Aromas
Expressive with zesty lemon peel, bright lime, and delicate floral nuances—echoing the lush landscape of Portugal’s Vinho Verde region. -
Palate
Light-bodied and effervescent, featuring tart green apple, juicy ripe pear, and a hint of melon. The profile is elevated by refreshing acidity and a gentle spritz born of natural or added carbonation. -
Finish
Clean, zippy, and invigorating—with lingering citrusy brightness and a mineral-driven snap that invites another sip.
