Soalheiro Sauvignon Blanc Branco 2023

Our aim is to create a wine that brings together these two world potentials, Sauvignon Blanc and Alvarinho, with a tendency for the former to show more in the bouquet and the second for rounding the taste component. In this Soalheiro, which in a simplified way we call Sauvignon, we find the aroma of green apple and asparagus of the Atlantic Sauvignon Blanc of Minho and the more tropical aromas of Alvarinho, characteristic of our region.

Grape Varieties: Sauvignon Blanc (70%), Alvarinho (30%).

Tasting Note: A wine with a citrus color, aromatic with hints of asparagus and soft tropical, persistent and mineral finish in the mouth.

Vinification: Sauvighon Blanc (70%) and Alvarinho (30%) ferment after gentle decantation in stainless steel tanks between 16 and 18ºC. In this way, a wine is produced that is both aromatic, with the vegetable hints of Sauvignon Blanc, and a wider and more mineral finish, achieved through the depth of Alvarinho.

Pairing: Fish and shellfish, poultry and generally white meats. It accompanies grilled asparagus and vegetarian lasagne very well.
