Rose Soalheiro Alvarinho Pinot Noir

$32.00
.Bottle

Soalheiro Mineral Rosé is born from desire to produce a rosé in the style light and dry from the South of France. This one style is not common in our region and with this wine we hope to show the versatility of our territory. Soalheiro Mineral Rosé owes its persistence to Pinot Noir and its elegance to Alvarinho. Reveal a minerality and an alcohol content moderate, without intense sweetness, often associated with rosés. Profile that makes him the company perfect for any occasion – at bar counter, before or after meal, or to accompany a dish main.

This Soalheiro Mineral Rosé mixes not only two grape varieties, but also two terroirs unique in our region. Alvarinho comes from high-altitude vineyards in Monção and Melgaço, sheltered from Atlantic influence. Pinot Noir comes from vineyards located in Atlantic part of the Minho region. The wine owes its intense minerality to the soils of granite, but also to the surprising way in which Pinot Noir adapted to the influence Atlantic, bringing a notable freshness.

The Pinot Noir variety is harvested in August, that is, earlier than Alvarinho, which it is only harvested in September. Thus, the vinification of Soalheiro Mineral Rosé is divided into three phases. The first is the pressing and fermentation of Pinot Noir grapes. At this stage, these red grapes are pressed, as happens in winemaking suitable for white grapes, immediately after harvest. The second phase is pressing and fermentation of Alvarinho grapes, from high-altitude vineyards. The third phase consists of mixing the fermented must of Pinot Noir grapes with the must fermented from Alvarinho grapes. This way, you can obtain a wine simultaneously aromatic and fresh, with a mineral character and intense flavor. Then, this batch ages in stainless steel for at least 6 months in contact with lees.

This wine has a light and delicate pink color with a fruity aroma and, at the same time, fresh. In the mouth it reveals an intense and mineral flavor.

Soalheiro Mineral Rosé is an excellent aperitif, great for drinking by the glass. Perfect to pair with light dishes, such as salads, fish or seafood, Asian and Mediterranean cuisine.
