Gazela Vinho Verde NV
Winery: "Gazela is an uncompromising wine, a renewed classic that confirms all the region's potential to create light and engaging wines, ideal for everyday drinking. Gazela has a very light yellow citrine colour, with a slight fizz that enhances its bouquet, flavours and freshness. Aromatic and engaging, Gazela adds to its citrus and tropical fruit notes a lively and stimulating acidity, very well balanced by a slight touch of sugar. The end product is a simple, versatile and very attractive wine. Given its freshness, Gazela is a wine best drunk young." Wired For Wine: You'll want to bring the big bag when you buy this beautiful bargain... Clean, crisp, and citrusy, with a slight spritz, this Gazela Vinho Verde is the perfect summer sipper. Thinking of having a fish-and-seafood-palooza? Look no further. If you're spending big on the lobster and shrimp, this terrific value will go easy on the budget... At this stupendous price, you can whip up a large pitcher of white sangria with ripe peach and green apple slices, floating next to green grapes and tiny slivers of ginger in addition to having a fresh glass on its own as a lovely aperitif. Bring out a dish of fried calamari with garlicky aioli dipping sauce. Your diners will love it. the lively acidity, gentle fizz, beautiful fruit and touch of sweetness make this Vinho Verde a perfect choice with fish, seafood, salads and much more. We love it with a Moroccan dish of grilled fresh sardines with fennel and preserved lemons. Estupenda! The acidity in this Gazela is great with fried fish, so we suggest crisp catfish tenders with Cajun tartar sauce. Another favorite of ours is a big bowl of mussels steamed in white wine with garlic, fresh tomatoes and of course, salt and butter. Be sure to have some nice fresh bread to mop up the sauce! Open another couple of bottles and bring the house down with Meyer lemon shortcakes topped with Meyer curd. OH it's hot; this wonderful white can help you cool off...
