Wine from Vinho Verde
Filter
Vinho Verde is one of the sexiest regions for wine in Portugal, and it is easy to see why. Originating the far north of Portugal, Vinho Verde is classified as a modern day region that was designated in 1908. Vinho Verde also includes the old Minho province. Contrary to popular belief, Vinho Verde is not a varietal.
The name translates to, “Green Wine,” but actually means, “Young Wine,” instead of mature wine. Green wine regardless of its color, is meant to be enjoyed within one year of bottling. In 2005, there were more than 30,000 growers in the region.
The growers train the grape vines to produce and grow up fences, above ground, up trees and incredibly, even up telephone poles. This is done so that the families of the growers can use the soil for fruit and vegetable crops as the majority of the growers are also part time farmers. The climate is humid and cool compared to the dry and hot climates in the Douro Valley and central Portugal.
Since the 17th century, wines from Vinho Verde DOC have been exported to Britain. The Romans expanded and promoted viticulture in the Lusitania province. Wines were produced for export as well as local consumption.
