For us, the best latin expression would be vini, vini, vini, as it would sum up this store’s soul subject: wine. Everything at Vinha revolves around Portuguese wine and the best way to get it to you.
Ok, maybe now you’re thinking “great, another online wine store…” and maybe you have a couple of questions like the ones bellow:
So, you sell wine. Any wine?
– We only sell Port and Portuguese wine.
All Portuguese wine?
– No, only a curated selection, since we don’t want to bother you with hundreds of possibilities.
Why Portuguese wine?
– Because we are from Portugal and we see the cellars of the world’s ancient Port brands from our office windows. So, we are confident that we’ll handle Portuguese wine better than a bloke from Surrey.
I’ve heard terms like “curated selection” before. How do I know you aren’t selling me just some inferior wine, one of those flashing stickers about a copper medal at an unknown wine challenge in an obscure French village, like the ones I usually find at the local supermarket?
-Vinha is the first online store in the world using Vivino ratings, the #1 app for wine lovers. So, when you see our ratings, you aren’t trusting our opinion; you’re trusting the opinion of a network of over 8 million wine lovers like yourself.
Huum… and you tell me what are the varieties in each wine?
– Sure thing. We provide lots of information about each wine.
But you do so using that “sommelier jargon” no ordinary consumer understands?
– We do very little of that. Instead, we focus on using simple terms to make it easier for you to know what to expect from each wine. For instance: light & fresh white wine, good to pair with sushi – sounds good?
So, I’ll have to read a lot to get to it?
– No, we have lots of videos about Port and Portuguese wine, including taped wine tasting notes of some of our Top Picks.
And is it safe?
Vinha is certified by ACEPI, the Portuguese branch of E-Mota’s European Trustmark. Our website is secured with an SSL Certificate and payment gateways are provided by PayPal or NetCaixa, whom are used by millions of users everyday.
Ok, you got me into it. Where do I register?
– You don’t even need to register to place your first order. Couldn’t be simpler!
We are opening a new chapter on the long history of Portuguese wine. And we’re counting on you to help us writing it!
