Casa de Sezim Grande Escolha 2006 Vinho Verde

Casa de Sezim is not nearly as bubbly as many of the other vinho verde wines I've tried; I have a suspicion this has something to do with its higher alcohol content. Most vinho verdes run between 9-10% alcohol; this one is 12.5%. But, this lack of effervescence does not make it any less of a wine. It's a little heavier on the tongue, and doesn't have the strong lemony, citrusy flavor that a lot of other vinho verdes have. This, instead, has a strong scent of peach! I would call this one a more serious vinho verde, better suited to go with food--it sort of begs for seafood, or something a little spicy--than the usual light sippin' wine that is other vinho verdes.
