Wine & Soul Manoella 10 Year Branco Port N/V
W I N E D E S C R I P T I O N
Manoella 10 Year Branco Port is a blend of White Ports from a field blend of Viosinho, Rabigato,
Códega do Larinho and Gouveio, sourced from high altitude old vineyards. All of the wines
crafted by Sandra and Jorge Serôdio Borges are known for being very distinctive, elegant, and
pure.
Located in Vale do Pinhão, Quinta da Manoella is a historic property that has belonged to the
family for 5 generations. With a total of 60 hectares of land, only 20 hectares are vineyards,
surrounded by a beautiful Mediterranean forest that creates a unique microclimate and
environment.
Hand-picked grapes are foot-trodden and fermented with spontaneous yeast in granite lagares.
Following fermentation, the wine is matured and aged in seasoned old 630L casks for 10 years
at the Quinta da Manoella Lodge.
T A S T I N G N O T E S
Attractive aromas of almonds, orange and white fig. On the palate it is rich, round and very
fresh with notes of dried fruits.
F O O D P A I R I N G
Fantastic alongside desserts with orange, apricot or fruit-based pies.
