Vértice Rd Espumante

Description

This Vértice RD is a sparkling wine that clearly spent a few too many nights shivering in the Douro. The pale colour and delicate bubbles hint at a certain reticence – it’s not immediately throwing itself at attention. You’ll detect the classic notes of hazelnut and pignut, a nod to the region’s heritage, alongside a buttery richness and that wonderfully yeasty aroma – suggesting a fondness for good, honest cooking. And with a solid 95 points from Robert Parker, it’s undeniably well-structured with a persistent finish. Perfect with grilled fresh fish, or perhaps a creamy sheep’s cheese for a truly comforting pairing.
