The Alvarinho variety had remained in the Melgaço region for years, and traditionally vines were planted along the edges of the fields, with cereals occupying the centre of the plots. In 1974, João António Cerdeira and his parents, António Esteves Ferreira and Maria Cerdeira, decided to break this tradition and planted the first continuous block of Alvarinho vines in Melgaço, which was christened “Soalheiro” because of its sun exposure. João António’s pioneering spirit marked the family’s history, which has since been linked to the production of Alvarinho in Melgaço. Today, it is the third generation that continues the legacy, extending the vision to organic production. (illustrative image only)
