Soalheiro Mineral Rosé Alvarinho-Pinot Noir

João António Cerdeira was the first to break from this tradition in Melgaço and planted a full parcel as a continuous vineyard of Alvarinho. Today the third generation family members continue to embrace this spirit of innovation.

Soalheiro Mineral Rosé comes from the desire to craft a rosé in the light, dry style of southern France. The wine owes its persistence to Pinot Noir and its elegance to Alvarinho. It boasts minerality and a moderate alcohol content, without the intense sweetness often associated with rosés. It is the perfect companion for any occasion- by itself, at the bar, before and after a meal, or paired with the main course.
