Winery Review:Pleasant and mellow, this young white wine will be the perfect accompaniment to all kinds of seafood, salads, mild cheeses, as an aperitif or just by itself. The alcohol content of Famega is 9.5% which makes it the ideal natural low calorie white wine. The grapes used in making Famega are 100% Alvarinho (same Albarino grape over the border in northwest Spain).
My Review: I liked the smell of this wine because it was light and crisp. There were not a lot of noticeable alcohol on the nose which I liked. The taste was sweet but not fruity. I liked this wine a lot. And we learned that the wine is called a Verde because the grapes are picked before they are fully ripe.
