I'm so not tired of talking about how good the 2011 Espiral Vinho Verde, Portugual is. Since it's available at Trader Joe's for a mere $3.99, I'm certain that there is a God. When you look at the wine in the glass, you'll notice effervescence, tears that fall fast and a very light watery green color. With lemon-lime citrus notes and great acidity, the wine is easy to quaff. With a 9% alcohol content, this northwestern Portuguese beverage won't kill you. Now you can say you love alavarinho and Loureiro. Apparently, the wine is injected with carbon dioxide to give it a pettilant quality. That might offend some. Not me.
