"A 90-year-old vineyard with a field blend of more than 40 indigenous grape varieties. The harvest took place on 22 September in perfect weather conditions. All grapes previously selected and non de-stemmed were foot trodden in stone lagares. Aged in an old port cask during 19 months, after which the wine was bottled. Total production 2,000 bottles. TA 5.2 g/l, pH 3.62, RS 100 g/l.
Very dark, almost black to the narrow purple-crimson rim. Seductive, rich black fruits, black plum, damson and blackberry. All entwined with the fruit is the distinctive dark, savoury minerality of the Douro, still showing in this ripe, full-fruited and concentrated vintage. Powerful, dense tannins. Mouth-filling wine with incipient complexity and refinement. Should have a long and glorious life ahead. Succulent and mouth-watering on the long finish, the finely dry tannins adding further freshness to the aftertaste."- Julia Harding MW
96 Points Wine Spectator. 95 Points James Suckling "Aromas of spiced black cherries and plum skins with licorice, tobacco and black earth. Full and concentrated yet crunchy and fresh, with a chewy grip of tannins and velvety texture. Broad-shouldered and opulent with a long finish. Try from 2026." - Jan 2023
Description
The Douro Valley, birthplace of Port, is one of the oldest and most beautiful of the historic European wine regions. Wine has been made there for two thousand years. The innovative yet rustic winery was founded nearly ten years ago by Jorge Serôdio Borges and his wife Sandra Tavares da Silva, two of the most celebrated winemakers in Portugal, who wanted to channel their extensive experience into a winery that would showcase the traditional varieties of the Douro Valley on an international scale. The name Wine & Soul is the product of their passion and total commitment to wine. From the start, this company’s work has focused on a tireless search for exceptional vines in the Pinhão Valley – the historic heart of great Port wines – to give them a voice.
