Manoella Tinto

Description

Jorge is the fifth generation of a long line of wine producers and cellar owners. In 2009, Sandra and Jorge acquired Quinta da Manoella, a property whose history dates back to 1838. The vineyards at Quinta da Manoella are over a century old, bordered on both sides by younger vines, allowing them to produce wines with a high level of freshness and delicacy, and with a concentration that quickly makes them recognized as some of the best wines of the Douro. Founded in 2001 by the winemaking couple Sandra Tavares da Silva and Jorge Serôdio Borges, the company Wine & Soul has been investing in and purchasing old vines and estates in the Rio Pinhão valley. The couple’s goal is to create wines that fully express the character of the old vines and indigenous Douro grape varieties, seeking a balance between concentration, complexity, and elegance.
