Lúcia-lima is a refreshing and rejuvenating herbal infusion made from 100% pure Lemon Verbena (Aloysia triphylla) leaves, sourced from the Soalheiro territory. This organic tea offers a citrusy, aromatic flavor, with a delightful lemony zest that is both invigorating and calming.
Soalheiro is a renowned winery located in the northern region of Portugal, particularly known for its exceptional Alvarinho wines. The winery has a strong tradition of innovation, with its origins tracing back to João António Cerdeira, who was the first to plant a full vineyard of Alvarinho in Melgaço.
The family-run winery, now managed by the third generation, continues to embrace both tradition and innovation in its winemaking practices. In addition to its wines, Soalheiro also produces herbal teas, which are a part of the region's rich cultural heritage.
