Wine & Soul “Quinta da Manoella” Vinhas Velhas Douro 2019

Varietal(s): A blend of traditional grape varieties, including Touriga Nacional, Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, and Tinta Amarela, sourced from old vines.

On the nose, this wine offers a rich bouquet of ripe black fruit, such as blackberry and cassis, accompanied by floral notes of violets and a hint of spice. On the palate, it is full-bodied with well-structured tannins and a good acidity that balances the ripe fruit flavors. The finish is long and persistent, leaving a pleasant sensation of freshness.

This wine is an excellent representation of the terroir and winemaking expertise of the region. It can be enjoyed now, but will also age gracefully for several years, revealing even more complexity and depth over time. It pairs well with a variety of hearty dishes, including grilled meats and stews.
