This classic Portuguese blend is foot-trodden in lagar and combines depth of fruit character and concentration from Touriga and Alicante, alongside structure and acidity from the Castelao.
It's a blend of Touriga Nacional, Alicante Bouschet, Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon among others - the exact proportions varying from vintage to vintage - which, after fermentation, is aged in large French oak barrels for 4 months before bottling.
Soalheiro’s Alvarinho ‘classico’ is, vintage after vintage, consistently bursting with vibrant, sun-drenched fruit and fresh minerality. Not your standard Vinho Verde, these wines can live for years, too.
