In 2001, Sandra Tavares da Silva (Quinta do Vale D. Maria and Quinta de Chocapalha) and her husband Jorge Borges (then Niepoort, now Passadouro) started realizing their dream. They bought a vineyard of very old vines of 2 hectares in Vale de Mendiz next to Noval. The annual harvest is 4000 bottles and 100 Magnums. From the first harvest, they have become among the icons of the Douro and are praised nationally and internationally for the charm and character of their wines that represent the unique terroir of the Douro region.

The Wine & Soul Pintas is a blend from old vines (84 years) from the Pinhão Valley and is a blend of more than 30 grape varieties from the Douro. The Pintas has matured for 20 months in French oak (30% new and 70% second-year wood). The wine starts off a bit stern, but this is actually just a baby and through oxygen and decanting, its true nature slowly emerges and that is strength wrapped in an elegant coat. Intense black fruit, cassis, earthy, complex on the nose. The wine has a fine concentration, focus and precision. The texture is pure velvet. In the mouth black fruit, muscular, mineral, notes of dark chocolate and mocca with a long warm aftertaste with supple tannins. 97/100 Parker and an impressive drinking window

This elegant powerhouse screams for red meat and game dishes with strong sauces and hard cheeses
