Trajadura

Portuguese varietal that is usually included in the wines of Vinho Verde in the eastern corner of the Iberian peninsula. Vinho Verde is often light and citrusy with a slight frizzante feel due to the high levels of acidity when the wines are young. Trajadura has a certain plush character, yet only when compared to its super acidic blending partners of Loureira and Alvarinho (AlbariƱo). Across the border in Galicia it is known as Treixadura and is often used to soften the wines of Ribiero and Rueda.
