The Making, Eating & Drinking program is an immersive experience that reveals the essence of Soalheiro by bringing together history, territory, gastronomy, and wine in a single journey. Everything begins in Melgaço, where in 1974 the first continuous Alvarinho vineyard of the region was planted, giving rise to a family project shaped by pioneering spirit, conscious innovation, and deep respect for the land.
The experience begins with a pastry workshop, where participants choose between two traditional proposals connected to the local heritage. The Leite Creme with Lemongrass The Pur Terroir, a dessert reinvented using Soalheiro’s organic infusions, or the Traditional Bica of Melgaço, a sweet that carries memories of families and local celebrations.
This is followed by a guided visit to Soalheiro, passing through the infusion fields, the first Alvarinho vineyard, the Origem Room, and the winery, ending at the panoramic terrace overlooking the Monção and Melgaço Valley. Along the way, the stories, values, and sustainable practices that define the project are shared, today recognized as the first brand in the region certified under the Portuguese Sustainability Reference.
The experience culminates in a complete gastronomic moment, where regional cuisine takes center stage through traditional starters, a main course of choice, and dessert, all harmonized with a guided tasting of emblematic Soalheiro wines. An invitation to experience the territory through flavors, people, and time.
A genuine way to experience Soalheiro through wine, food, and the territory.
