Soalheiro ALLO 2024 Vinho Verde Branco 75cl
Description
ALLO could just be a greeting, or perhaps refer to the famous BBC sitcom 'Allo 'Allo! , but it is the combination of the initials of Alvarinho and Loureiro, two noble varieties of Minho. Loureiro, which represents 70% of the blend of this wine, contributes with its floral notes, while Alvarinho is responsible for the structure of ALLO . Combining Loureiro's delicate nature with Alvarinho's confidence, ALLO is a wine that represents both the fun and serious sides of our Territory.
Terroir: The Alvarinho and Loureiro grapes that make up this wine come from terroirs that are ideal for the cultivation of each one. The Loureiro vineyards are grown in an area with an Atlantic influence, where the temperature range is relatively low, thus preserving the typical aromas of this variety, while the Alvarinho grapes come from an inland region protected by the mountains of Monção and Melgaço, thus providing the domain of the aromatic precursors of tropical fruits, so characteristic of this grape variety.
Vinification: The grapes are hand-picked. After pressing, the must is clarified at low temperature. Loureiro and Alvarinho ferment separately in stainless steel, aging with the lees before blending and bottling.
