Mouchao Dom Rafael White

$27.99

Thomas Reynolds emigrated to Porto in 1824 and founded Thomas Reynolds & Son, dedicated to the export of Port wine, olive oil, wool, honey and cork to England. Around 1832, he moved to Alentejo, attracted by the cork business.

Herdade do Mouchão was one of dozens of estates where the Reynolds family produced cork, and it is likely that there were already vines on the estate by that time.

In 1850, Robert Hunter Reynolds (son of Thomas) assumed the management of the business, and in the early 1880’s his nephew William Reynolds played a crucial role in the fight against phylloxera as President of the National Commission against Phylloxera.

A blend of Arinto and Antão Vaz grapes. Since its relaunch in 1994, Dom Rafael white wines are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats at a cool 15ºC and bottled early for a more pronounced fruit expression. A fresh, aromatic wine, with notes of lime and lemon blossom.  Minerality underpins the youthful structure of this wine, which is best enjoyed in its early years.
