Wine & Soul 'Manoella' Branco 2023 SLO Down Wines Fine tannins and fresh acidity

Fine tannins and fresh acidity work hand in hand

the finish lingers on herbs and dried flowers

There is immense vertical richness in that creamy but svelte texture

pepper and leather

mocha and baking spice that wind down to a chocolate-infused finish

Wine & Soul 'Manoella' Branco 2023 SLO Down Wines Fine tannins and fresh acidityI was able to taste the just bottled 2023 Manoella Branco. This was a very balanced vintage, the growing season was almost perfect, and yields were good. The wine was a little closed for such an expressive year of wines with purity and freshness. It has notes of white flowers and fruit and a balsamic touch with the balance and harmony from the old vines. Robert Parker
