Soalheiro ALLO 2024 is a lively and well-balanced Vinho Verde from the Minho region in northern Portugal. This white wine is a harmonious blend of two noble grape varieties: 70% Loureiro and 30% Alvarinho. Loureiro brings elegant floral aromas and mineral notes, while Alvarinho contributes structure and tropical fruit flavors. The name “ALLO” combines the initials of both grapes, reflecting their perfect union in this wine.
Hand-harvested grapes undergo gentle pressing and cool decantation. The Loureiro and Alvarinho are fermented separately in stainless steel tanks and left on their lees before blending and bottling, which adds complexity and depth.
The wine shows a bright lemon-yellow color with a silvery shimmer. On the nose, it offers elegant mineral and floral aromas with hints of tropical fruits. On the palate, it is dry, fresh, and lively, with well-integrated acidity and a harmonious finish.
Soalheiro ALLO pairs beautifully as an aperitif and complements dishes such as seafood, grilled fish, white meats, aged cheeses, smoked meats, as well as Asian and Mediterranean cuisine. It is best served chilled between 8 and 10 degrees Celsius to fully enjoy its freshness and aromatic profile.
Overall, Soalheiro ALLO 2024 is a versatile and approachable Vinho Verde that embodies the characteristic qualities of its region, making it suitable for both everyday enjoyment and special occasions.
