Another fine Vinho Verde!

Last weeks Yakitori dinner was brilliant. With chickens skins and peri peri shrimp I supplied the 2016 Anselmo Mendes Alvarinho Vinho Verde Muros Antigos which was very nicely evolved.
The wine became a lot richer as it aired. Some spritz and aromatics of citrus, floral and salty. Medium body, some ripeness. Lemon citrus fruits, apple, one thought grapefruit. A fresh zippy and crisp Alvarinho. Very well received by the 7 attendees.

Sounds like perfect food match, Bob.

Well we have another Yakitori dinner this coming Saturday, lets hope those chicken skins show up again!
I will prepare chicken hearts on a skewer but will have to visit Chinatown to get some fancy marinading ingredients.
Think a PN in order but I am not the wine guru this time around. Someone has some Lambrusco from a wedding last week

I would fly up for a yakitori dinner!

You would be most welcome, it will be a great evening.

I can't think of a bad Vinho Verde. They are uniformly good and great for warm weather drinking.
