40 years ago, more precisely in 20-3-82, Alvarinho de Melgaço's first brand, Soalheiro, was born.

The Special 40 Years Edition Soalheiro celebrates the diversity of the Territory and the respect for the unique characteristics of each harvest: it consists of two batch wines, testimonies of two different year harvests-2015 L15, a cold year and the 2018 L18, a hot year, and two blends proposed by us: 2015 L1518, composed essentially of the 2015 harvest (cold), 15% of the 2018 harvest (hot) and a cellar secret, and 2018 L1815, in inverse percentages.

A game of oenology that we suggest exploring in blind tests and with their own combinations.

The labels of these four wines pay homage to the original bottle, in a recreation that carries the name of the founder, João António Cerdeira.

Pack includes:

-2015 L15 A fresh and vibrant Alvarinho.

-2015 L1518 A fresh and round Alvarinho with a cellar secret.

-2018 L1815 A body-and-vibrant Alvarinho with a cellar secret.

-2018 L18 A wide and persistent Alvarinho.
