In 2001, Wine & Soul was established, making its debut with the first vintage of Pintas, the flagship wine. In 2003, they bought the vineyard, tying their colours to the mast. This Pintas Character, their second wine is truly impressive. This is from over 30 indigenous varieties – a field blend, rigorously selected, de-stemmed and foot-trodden before being fermented for 10 days in traditional lagares before 18 months in 50% new and 50% one year old French oak barrique.
