Granit has a bright, lemon-yellow colour, exhibiting elegant aromas with more mineral notes. The taste is crisp, dry, and persistent, with more earthy and stony flavours. There is a sensation of saltiness on the palate, reflecting the impact of the granite soils on Alvarinho.

STORY BEHIND THE LABEL

Soalheiro Granit is crafted from a selection of small Alvarinho vineyards planted in granitic soil at an altitude of 400 meters. Located in the heart of Monção and Melgaço, these grapes are harvested by hand to ensure peak quality. Following a careful clarification of the must, fermentation takes place in stainless steel at 22°C - a higher temperature than typical for whites - designed to reveal the wine’s distinct mineral character and crystalline structure.
