Vinho Verde is Portugal’s northwesternmost DOC wine region. It is also Portugal’s largest, extending from the border with Spain all the way down the Atlantic coastline until it meets the city of Porto. The name ‘Vinho Verde’, which translates to ‘Green Wine’, pays tribute to the lush, green region from which the wine comes, which is known for its high rainfall and fertile soils. The name itself is a nod not to its colour, but to the vibrant, youthful character of the wines that perfectly reflect the landscape around them.
