The NV 20 Year Old Manoella Tawny Port is an elegant and fresh example that reflects the character of the property, as they want to make Port wines linked to the place (and the vineyard) that show differently. It has a certain lightness—they harvested the grapes earlier—without over-ripeness, and the wine has around 112 grams per liter of sugar, as they don't want to make wines with a lot of sugar.

Wine & Soul, Jorge Serôdio and Sandra Tavares, have concentrated their efforts in the last years in the vineyards. They have grown from the initial two hectares for Pintas to over 40 hectares today. The portfolio has also grown, and so have volumes. They now produce 180,000 bottles, including Port.

Manoella 20 Year Tawny Port is produced from a field blend of over 30 different indigenous grape varieties. All of the wines crafted by Sandra and Jorge Serôdio Borges are known for being very distinctive, elegant, and pure.

Hand-picked grapes are foot-trodden and fermented with spontaneous yeast in stone lagares. Following fermentation, the wine is matured and aged in seasoned  630L Portuguese chestnut casks for 20 years at the Quinta da Manoella Lodge.
