Fizzy, fresh and fun — what's not to like about the Crab Wine? Clocking in at only 9% alcohol, with the slightest touch of sweetness on the palate, there's a reason why we've kept this wine in stock for over a decade. Simply delicious and dangerously drinkable, this is a crisp, refreshing style of Vinho Verde bursting with zesty lemo, lime and juicy peach that is perfect for sipping by the pool in the sun.

Summer sippin goodness in a bottle. That is what I thought the first time I tried this wine a few years ago and that thought has remained each time I taste it again. Perfect thirst quenching, low alcohol, slightly fizzy sipping goodness. This is the wine to grab by the case and find a reason to open on a beautiful afternoon.

A light, fresh, and juicy white from Portugal that will be sure to please. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit, and orchard fruit. Hints of white flowers additionally. Flavors of bright citrus and green apple. I love the slight fizziness the wine exhibits as well. This is a summer-sipper staple; be sure to grab some for your next get together!

Fun, fun, fun! Crisp, refreshing, and spritzy this is THE quintessential, eazy-breezy, zippy summer sipper. You're going to want to keep this on hand for poolside sipping, or for enjoying with salads, cheese and yes, even crab.

Notes

Produced from Loureiro and Pederña grapes grown in the granitic soils of the Vinho Verde region, the Santola (or as we here are calling it, "the crab wine") is a delicious, spritely, and refreshing white. It doesn't get much more traditional, thirst-quenching, or seasonally perfect than this wine. Delicious, low in alcohol, slightly fizzy, and way too easy to drink!
