Description
Quinta do Soalheiro select Alvarinho and Loureiro grapes from selected vineyards of excellent terroir, respectively the valley of the Minho and Lima river, with soil of granite origin. Hand harvested with cool fermentation in stainless steel, this wine is yellow in appearance with lots of citrus alongside soft floral scents. Juicy and mineral-fresh on the palate with a balance of tropical fruit from the Alvarinho and floral aspects from the Loureiro. Vibrant and precise, try as an aperitif or with seafood dishes, fish or poultry.
The Soalheiro vineyards were established in 1974 on high slopes overlooking the Minho River. Since then, this very special granite terroir has allowed Soalheiro to forge its reputation as a fine producer of benchmark wines.
