Quinta de Soalheiro Rosé 2023 Mineral

€ 16.00

Quinta de Soalheiro is also venturing into the world of Rosés with the launch of the Soalheiro Mineral Rosé. The aim is to challenge connoisseurs to try a Rosé that may not be to everyone’s liking, as it does not have the intense sweetness and smoothness normally associated with Rosés. It's a wine with a delicate pink colour, aromatic and fresh at the same time, with a mineral palate and intense flavour

With its elegance and minerality, this Soalheiro is a wine for everyone - of every age and sex - and for many occasions, and we hope that its consumers will find that special moment to celebrate with the Soalheiro Mineral Rosé

This blend of Alvarinho (70%) and Pinot Noir (30%) bears the typical fine signature of Soalheiro and brings the minerality of the terroir closer sip by sip. The grapes come from particularly high altitudes in Melgaço. The sour fruitiness of the Alvarinho goes well with the warm berry flavor of the Pinot Noir. Not cheesy, with serving sweetness or limp candy fruit like so many rosés - this stuff is the complete opposite. Very simple, mineral, bone dry, juicy, cool, lively, fresh.

Food-Pairing

The Soalheiro Mineral Rosé can be enjoyed as an excellent relaxing aperitif, as it is very much in line with the current trend of consuming wine by the glass. It is also a perfect accompaniment for lighter dishes such as salads, fish or shellfish, shrimps with rouille sauce or grilled king prawns

Grapes: Alvarinho 70%, Pinot Noir 30%

The Alvarinho produced in high-altitude vineyards, with its intense, fresh and mineral character, receives the addition of Pinot Noir, which is also grown in this region and brings a more aromatic and elegant element to the blend. This creates a wine which is aromatic and fresh at the same time, with a mineral character and intense flavour.
