I think that everything they make is technically Vinho Verde. They have wines with different soil types (Schist vs Granite) and different elevage (in stainless steel, or old barrels or some new barrels or very large old barrels). Grapes can be different as well, but Soalheiro is famous for Alvarinho.

What is charme Bairrada? I assume a different wine than the other Charme?
