The wine region of Minho
Minho is Portugal's Northernmost wine region. It is known for one wine style above all others: crisp, light, white Vinho Verde, whose DOC zone covers the same territory. The Minho name is used for the area's Vinho Regional designation (similar to the French IGP). The latter's looser production laws allow more diversity in the average winery's portfolio, including red and rosé wines.
The word of the wine: Overmaturation
When the grapes reach maturity, the skin becomes permeable and progressively loses water, which causes a concentration phenomenon inside the berry. This is called over-ripening or passerillage.
