Compania de Vinos del Atlantico Patio Pounder Vinho Verde Branco NV (1L) MH Rhys' natural whole-cluster pressing andThe name is the mission statement. Patio Pounder is a full liter of easygoing Vinho Verde built for volume drinking on a warm afternoon, and at just 10% alcohol you can keep going. It's blended from Loureiro, Fernao Pires, and a little Arinto off sandy granite soils in northern Portugal, then rested a few months on the lees for a touch of roundness. Crisp, citrusy, and thirst quenching this is a crowd pleaser you buy by the armful.
