Soalheiro Primeiras Vinhas Alvarinho 2022
Primeiras Vinhas, Soalheiro's best wine, is, as its name suggests, made with the oldest grapes of the estate, planted about 40 years ago. For several years now, grapes from a limited "pe-franco" plantation have also been used for Primeiras Vinhas.
The microclimate that influences the production of Alvarinho grapes is very particular, the region of Melgaço, at the northern tip of Portugal, is protected by a mountain range that creates the perfect conditions of rainfall, temperature and number of hours of sunshine necessary for the best ripening of the Alvarinho grapes.
The name Soalheiro comes from the excellent sun exposure of the vineyards bearing the same name - a sunny place.
The nose develops elegant and full citrus fruit aromas, and the palate is full, fresh and complex with a great final complexity.Ideal as an aperitif or to accompany seafood, fish or poultry dishes.

De familie Cerdeira was in 1982 de eerste om terug aan te knopen bij de traditie van kwaliteitswijnen op basis van de lokale Alvarinho-druif. João Antonio Cerdeira plantte daartoe de eerste stokken in 1974 en het zijn die oude wingerds die vandaag nog steeds de druiven leveren voor de topcuvée ‘Primeiras Vinhas’.
