Herdade Do Mouchão Dom Rafael Tinto

Description

This Dom Rafael, aged in both Portuguese and French oak, is hinting at a remarkably layered maturation. The oak’s influence is clearly bringing a welcome smoothness, suggesting a wine that will only deepen in complexity – a true Alentejo classic. Expect a robust structure from the Aragonez and Trincadeira, balanced by the subtle additions of Alicante Bouschet and Castelão. Seriously, this would be fantastic with a perfectly grilled beef dish or a hearty lamb stew.
