2023 Soalheiro Alvarinho

£21.00

Experience the timeless elegance of Soalheiro Alvarinho, known as 'Clássico' for being the very first wine crafted by the family in 1982.

Nestled in the far north of Portugal, the Monção and Melgaço region is guarded by majestic mountains that create a distinct microclimate. This harmonious balance of precipitation, temperature, and sunlight hours is crucial for the optimal ripening of Alvarinho grapes. During this critical stage, there is a delicate interplay of warm days and cool nights, resulting in a perfect blend of vibrant fruity notes and a balanced acidity - precisely what we strive for in our exclusive Soalheiro Alvarinho.

The grapes are harvested by hand. Between pressing and fermentation, the must is clarified at a low temperature. The wine ferments in stainless steel and matures on fine lees before bottling.

Tasting Note: Soalheiro Alvarinho has a bright, lemon-yellow colour. This wine is distinguished by its fresh and elegant fragrance, revealing the aromatic complexity of Alvarinho variety. The flavour has intense tropical and mineral notes that balance perfectly with the acidity and moderate alcohol content.
