AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Pintas 2017 is one of the most iconic vintages produced by Wine & Soul, the project founded by Sandra Tavares da Silva and Jorge Serôdio Borges, and is widely regarded as one of the great Portuguese wines of the 21st century.
What Makes Pintas Special?
Pintas comes from a single very old vineyard in the Douro Valley, with more than 40 grape varieties grown together (field blend), some over 80 years old.
Wine & Soul's philosophy is to produce a wine that expresses the vineyard and the Douro terroir, prioritizing:
Low yields.
Manual harvest.
Traditional foot-treading in lagares.
Aging in French oak barrels.
The 2017 Vintage
The year 2017 was extraordinary in the Douro:
Very hot and dry summer.
Reduced yields.
Extremely concentrated grapes.
Ripe tannins.
Great aromatic intensity.
Many producers consider 2017 to be one of the best vintages since 2011.
