Region: Alentejo, Portugal<\/p>\n
The Vine, Figueira de Cima – Forty hectares of vineyard on top of the hill, provides adequate, natural drainage and excellent sun exposure.<\/p>\n
Schist soils and the difference in levels produce a marked thermal variation over the 24 hours, favoring the maturation of the grape.<\/p>\n
Perfect setting for Reynolds to grow specialty grapes. The main varieties are the traditional ones of the region: Trincadeira, Aragon\u00eas, Alfrocheiro, Arinto and Alicante Bouschet, the latter introduced in Portugal by the Reynolds family more than a century and a half ago and still used as the basis of their red wines.<\/p>\n
The Reynolds Wine Growers estate is located next to the natural park of Serra de S. Mamede, close to Portalegre, a place of enormous beauty, two hundred hectares of meadows streaked with green, gold and intense brown.<\/p>\n
The view is filled with sky and mountains, the oaks and cork oaks are like herds in the landscape.<\/p>\n
The cellar is next to the vineyard, suitable for the harvest.<\/p>\n
The wine cellar is located in an old building, used in the past as an oxen stable.<\/p>\n
The reconstruction and transformation fully respect the original structure: thick stone walls, chestnut wood ceilings and slate floors. Ideal place for the production of excellent wines, with an average temperature of less than 20\u00baC and a good level of permanent humidity.<\/p>\n
Large French oak vats, manufactured especially for this winery by the prestigious French cooperage Seguin Moreau, are used in the vinification, as with the large \u201cChateaux\u201d.<\/p>\n
During the harvest, each grape variety is harvested by hand in small quantities, then fermented in the vats by decanting, without stepping, in a completely manual process.<\/p>\n
The aging of the wines is done by grape varieties separately in French oak barrels from the same cooperage as the vats.<\/p>\n
The combination of the different grape varieties takes place only and immediately before bottling the wine.<\/p>\n
The quality of the wines allows them to be present on all continents and in some of the best restaurants in the world.<\/p>\n
Due to the high quality of the grapes, the wines are almost free of sulphites.<\/p>\n
They are produced with a concentration of fruit and strict hygiene to last for decades.<\/p>\n
The wines have been highly rated by reputable international publications, such as Wine Enthusiast & Robert Parker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
