Vadio Espumante Solera Branco is a unique and captivating sparkling wine produced by Vadio Wines, a renowned winery based in the Bairrada region of Portugal. This sparkling wine stands out for its unconventional production method, utilizing the solera system typically associated with fortified wines. The solera system involves blending wines from different vintages in a cascading manner, resulting in a complex and layered final product.

Vadio Espumante Solera Branco is crafted primarily from the indigenous Bical grape variety, which thrives in the limestone-rich soils of Bairrada. The wine undergoes a traditional method of secondary fermentation in the bottle, resulting in fine bubbles and a persistent mousse. With its extended time on the lees, the wine develops an impressive depth of flavours and a creamy texture.
