In the Winery

Soalheiro has been evolving steadily. The recently refurbished winery creates a space that optimises its winemaking capacity, with specific sections dedicated to fermentation and ageing, maintaining ideal conditions for the wines to express their unique character. Every tiny, but essential, detail is carefully considered in order to ensure consistent quality. The winery is a space that functionally respects winegrowing and winemaking traditions while opening its doors to new and creative styles of wine production. One of the most important features is a special place for innovation where the team and winemaker can discover new wines and processes. 

Alvarinho is the heart and soul of the Soalheiro operation and the centre of their wines. Through different labels, their goal is to express the varietal’s many personalities. They organize the diverse range of wines into several families: fruity, mineral, natural, sparkling, and a special category called ‘Innovation and Partnership’. This last category is where the Soalheiro team, their oenologist, and local creative partners work together with only one objective: to grow their wine knowledge. In this family, they organise the wines that are the result of the experiments and partnerships. In each wine, they explain the philosophy and the concept.
