Why it's on our shelf

Most people associate Vinho Verde with something sweet and slightly fizzy — this is the bottle I use to prove them wrong. Monção e Melgaço, mountain Alvarinho country, granite soils, early harvest to preserve freshness. 150,000 bottles — Anselmo Mendes' calling card. Three months on fine lees, long low-temperature fermentation. Clean, mineral, and precise.
