Tried this Vinho Verde last night:
1. Soalheiro Granit Alvarinho Mineral Selection DOC: Vinho Verde Moncao e Melgaco (13%; Taub Family Slctns/West Palm Beach/FL) 2022: Med.yellow color; fairly strong citrus/lemony/lightly floral fresh/bright light stony/chalky quite pretty nose; quite tart/tangy/rather acidic floral/citrusy brisk/chalky/stony bright/green bit metallic classic VinhoVerde bit steely/mineral/flinty flavor; med.long green/mineral finish that follows flavor; a pretty classic expression of VV w/ more stony/mineral character than most. $22.00 (AV)

More flipperflatt from TheBloodyPulpit:
1. This was a pretty classic example of VinhoVerde but shows more mineral character than most. Quite a nice-drinking VV that went well w/ the fresh tomatoes.
