Please note the above alert refers to an upcoming Brunello Offer being revealed next Wednesday. Stay tuned...

Today's offer on the 2011 Wine & Soul Manoella will disappear, which is why I'm coming directly to you! Wine & Soul's Quinta de Manoella, nearly gone, so Act Now.

• Perfect example from the majestic 2011 vintage in the Douro, and reportedly the winery's best release yet. A must-buy for Portugese wine fans everywhere.
• Last few cases remaining, so don't miss out on this cuvee made by both the former winemaker for Niepoort and the Douro's first female winemaker (formerly of Quinta do Vale D. Maria)!

"The 2011 Tinto Quinta da Manoella is 60% Touriga Nacional, 25% Touriga Franca, 10% Tinta Roriz and 5% Tinta Francisca, all aged in two-year old French barriques for 16 months. This is a lovely Tinto from this property, probably the best yet. Graceful, but surprisingly powerful at the moment, it has more persistence than seems apparent at first, plus fine aromatics. This property simply seems to lend itself to elegance, but this has stuff going on. Bright and penetrating, if not very deep or obvious, it should drink very nicely. I suspect the tannins will fall off fairly quickly here and it will seem much more straightforward in time. It is not overly concentrated in the mid-palate. For the moment, it still has room to improve in the cellar, not yet being at peak. In this generally pricey lineup, this is the bargain point. Drink now-2021. "

Boasting one of Wine & Soul's best releases ever, and for only $19.98/bottle, today's offer represents an 'Act Now' kind of deal. I'm selling off the remaining cases of this gorgeous example from the Douro Valley of Portugal from a vintage that has been acclaimed as among the greatest in decades.

Jorge Serôdio Borges and Sandra Tavares da Silva, the husband-and-wife owners/winemakers behind Wine & Soul, have a long history in winemaking. Previously, Jorge Serôdio Borges was an oenologist at Niepoort. Now, in addition to owning Wine & Soul, he owns the winery Passadouro with the Bohrmann family. Sandra Tavares da Silva has the recognition of being the first female winemaker in the Douro. She gained her experience at Quinta do Vale D. Maria in the Douro.
