A tasting guide

  1. Read the label

    For Vinho verde, note the producer, place and vintage where given. A grape name, a regional style and a specific bottle tell you different things.

  2. Taste in stages

    Notice appearance and aroma first, then acidity, sweetness, body and finish. Write your own impressions before comparing tasting notes.

  3. Make a useful comparison

    Compare two labeled examples while keeping the glass and serving conditions consistent. Change one factor, such as region or producer, at a time.
