About the producer
The vineyards owned by Wine & Soul were acquired over the years since the company was established. An investment in old vineyards to produce wines that are capable of expressing the traditional Douro style, seeking a balance between concentration, balance and elegance.

The vineyards located in the Douro region, specifically in the sub-regions of Cima Corgo and Vale do Pinhão, in the village of Vale de Mendiz, are primarily old vineyards over 80 years old, made up of a blend of indigenous grape varieties. These properties include Quinta da Manoella, an estate owned by the Serôdio Borges family for 5 generations.

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.

The first vineyard acquired by Wine&Soul, there are just 2.5 hectares of very old vines with a field blend of more than 40 different indigenous grape varieties. The vineyard boasts an exceptional location in the Pinhão Valley, facing southwest at 400 meters of altitude, producing wines with a unique expression of fruit, elegance and minerality.

About the producer
Castello Monaci stands out in the heart of the Salice Salentino DOC, which is located in Puglia, a region along the Adriatic in the “heel of the boot” of farthest southeast Italy. The production of Castello Monaci’s estate wines is carefully followed from the vineyards to the winery and into the bottle. The estate is dedicated to their sustainable philosophy and is one of a small number of Italian estates to have their sustainability certified by DNV-GL, a globally recognized firm. Even Castello Monaci’s packaging is eco-friendly, carrying the Environmental Management System Certificate logo.

Castello Monaci is a benchmark producer crafting wines from Southern Italy’s indigenous grapes: Primitivo, Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera. The region of Puglia is drenched in the most intense sunlight in all of Italy tempered only by the Adriatic and Ionian seas which provide con¬stant, cooling maritime winds. This unique climate helps produce exquisitely balanced fruit.

The Castello Monaci estate is housed in a 16th century castle with medieval foundations once run by Basilian monks who maintained a long wine¬making tradition. Lina Memmo, whose family has owned the estate since the 19th century, and husband Vitantonio Seracca Guerrieri, currently own the property. Each vineyard parcel is cultivated, harvested—always at night to unsure the best quality of grapes—and vinified separately in small tanks. The area dedicated to aging wines is a spectacular barrel cellar dug out of the hard rock that houses 1,000 barriques and 18 French oak barrels.

Castello Monaci’s cellars are surrounded by over 350 acres of vineyards, including old vine Negroamaro and Primitivo. In addition, they have expanded their estate with holdings near Brindisi planted with white varietals. Vitantonio Seracca Guerrieri, president of the estate, who for years has experimented with selections to enhance the native vines of Salento, supervises the work in the vineyards personally.

Douloufakis Winery Crete Vidiano Dafnios Regular $21.99
Appellation:Crete
Region:Crete
Country:Greece
Raw Materials: Vidiano
Producer: Douloufakis Winery

About the producer
Our second winery from Crete is widely recognized in Greece for its excellence in traditional winemaking but with a focus on the future. In 1930, Dimitris Douloufakis became one of the first winemakers in Crete to produce wines professionally in his traditional, old winery. A consistent award winner, Dimitris’s grandson, Nikolas, now runs the winery carrying on his grandfather’s traditional practices but with more modern equipment and facilities.

The privately owned vineyards are certified 100% organic and span over 70 acres of hillside land in Dafnes, a village close to Iraklio in Crete. This region has a long history in viticulture and also has been established as a Protected Designation of Origin for Liatiko wines. In addition to the natural choice of Liatiko, Nikolas grows other Cretan indigenous varieties such as Kotsifali, Vilana, Vidiano, along with other international varieties such as Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay

MAS DE DAUMAS GASSAC MOULIN DE GASSAC GUILHEM BLANC 2021$11.99
A casual Languedoc blend of 40% Grenache Blanc, 30% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Terret. A rich white wine, scented beautifully.

Few winemakers have come to define their region like Mas de Daumas Gassac has with the Languedoc. What sets Mas de Daumas Gassac apart is their unflinching commitment to pushing the boundaries — of the appellation’s rules, of conventional farming techniques, of “expected” grape varieties.

Aimé and Véronique Guibert purchased the land in the early 1970s; they had planned to start a farm, but weren’t sure what type of crops they wanted to grow. It took convincing from a Bordeaux-based soil scientist, who saw great grape-growing potential in the limestone-rich land, as densely mineral-laden as Burgundy’s Côte d’Or.

Making wine in the Languedoc is nothing new — the Greeks and Romans were doing it millennia ago. In planting their estate to vines, the Guiberts chose to buck local tradition and plant a wide (very wide) assortment of international grapes; there’s Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay, sure, but also Petite Arvine, Tempranillo, Nebbiolo and more. Prior to owning the estate, the Guiberts traveled the world as part of a family leather business, and became enamored with grapes from far-off and exotic locales.
