A friend of mine gave me a bottle, just a few weeks back, of a 2008 Soalheiro Reserva and wanted me to taste it. I did and posted a note on it a few days later. I have tasted these wines before, but never noticing them. That Reserva opened my eyes. A few days back I got a chance to taste two further wines from this producer.
2010 Soalheiro Espumante Bruto:
BU5140901 (199,90) Pale lemon green with small bubbles. Elegant and fruity nose with yellow plums and yeast. Fresh acidity, lively and fruit-driven, nice length. 85
2009 Soalheiro Alvarinho Primerias Vinhas:
5227201 (219,90) Pale lemon yellow. Almost Burgundian nose, just slightly more yellow fruits. Fresh acidity, very yellow apples palate, elegant and a lovely balance, long length. 88
