The producer, tasting note published in 20/10/2020


Oppaco tem cor rubi brilhante e revela aromas de fruta vermelha fresca com notas de especiarias. O sabor é elegante e persistente, com taninos persistentes. O Soalheiro Oppaco tem o mesmo potencial de evolução em garrafa que os nossos vinhos brancos.

About this Wine

About this Wine

Oppaco representa uma verdadeira inovação. Na região do Minho, a casta Vinhão expressa-se de uma forma muito interessante, particularmente pela sua elevada concentração de taninos e de cor. Por isso, consideramos importante loteá-la com outras castas, neste caso com Alvarinho e Pinot Noir, para produzir um vinho mais suave e mais elegante. A casta Vinhão é uma das poucas castas tintas em que a polpa da uva é tinta, produzindo um mosto que já tem cor. As uvas são prensadas imediatamente a seguir à vindima para evitar o contacto com as películas em demasia. O Alvarinho e o Vinhão fermentam juntos sem maceração, enquanto o Pinot Noir fermenta separadamente e passa algum tempo em contacto com as películas. Depois da fermentação, 30% do vinho estagia em barricas novas de carvalho francês durante 12 meses. Soalheiro Oppaco é um vinho com um potencial de evolução semelhante aos restantes vinhos da gama Soalheiro. É um vinho elegante e delicado, mas consistente... um vinho tinto feito por um produtor de brancos.

About this Winery

Soalheiro is the first Alvarinho brand in the northern point of Portugal named Melgaço and one of the first Portuguese producers of Alvarinho. Here the Alvarinho is special, the land is protected by a range of mountains that create conditions of rainfall, temperature and sunshine hours necessary for the best ripening of the grapes. We hope you too will love its vibrant and elegant expression, something we've been passionate.
