O Produtor

O Produtor, tasting note published in January 4th 2025

Soalheiro Alvarinho has a bright lemon-yellow colour. This wine stands out for its fresh and elegant aroma, immediately revealing the extraordinary complexity of the Alvarinho grape variety on the nose. The wine's flavour, with intense tropical and mineral notes, is perfectly balanced with its acidity and moderate alcohol content.

Soalheiro

Soalheiro Alvarinho is known as the “Classic” because it was the first wine produced by the family in 1982. Since then, it continues to be our classic style, a single varietal of the Alvarinho grape, with aromatic freshness, intense flavor, and extraordinary aging potential in the bottle – it’s a wine that clearly complements any occasion!

The grapes are hand-harvested. After pressing and before fermentation, the must is clarified at low temperature. The wine ferments in stainless steel and ages in contact with the fine lees before bottling. The vinification of Soalheiro Alvarinho is focused on producing a wine that enhances the quality of the grapes and allows for good evolution after bottling.

Our “Classic” has the elegance to be a perfect aperitif or to accompany seafood, grilled fish, white meat, cured cheese, smoked meat, as well as Asian and Mediterranean cuisine dishes.

Quinta de Soalheiro

oalheiro is the first Alvarinho brand in the northern point of Portugal named Melgaço and one of the first Portuguese producers of Alvarinho. Here the Alvarinho is special, the land is protected by a range of mountains that create conditions of rainfall, temperature and sunshine hours necessary for the best ripening of the grapes. We hope you too will love its vibrant and elegant expression, something we’ve been passionate.
