Vinho Verde Video

Post by Roy Hersh »

Those of us just back from the 2009 Harvest Tour, visited this top notch VV producer and here is a great youtube video about them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKr1i1Bt-Wc

Good to know they changed the label, or did the branding change? Sadly I know most of my Vinho Verdes by the label image, not the name. Checking their website, it looks like a variation on the "old" label image is still used today for the Aveleda Fonte Vinho Verde. Today they make that and the Quinta da Aveleda Vinho Verde, among others. But "Aveleda Vinho Verde," with label image below, is no longer around. How did this fit into the history?

The Quinta was a wonderful place to walk around. I believe Goncalo posted some pics of it earlier this year. I would love to be there when all the greenery is in full bloom, the sight and smells must be wonderful. Oh and they made some very good QPR wines, white AND a red.
