Julian Reynolds Reserva Tinto

Descrição

Thomas Reynolds, a sailor and English trader, arrived in Portugal in 1820, drawn by the wine trade, and had two sons, Thomas and Robert. From Porto he supplied his commercial warehouse in London with Iberian products. In 1838 they entered the cork industry in Spain, expanding to Portugal and eventually settling in Estremoz. After the family moved to New Zealand, Robert remained in Estremoz to run the business, which grew rapidly with the acquisition of new lands and the production of quality wines—a pursuit he pursued with particular dedication and passion. The Alentejo became the definitive birthplace of the Reynolds in Portugal and of Robert, the family patriarch. From this birthplace came Robert’s eldest son, Robert Rafael, and from him, Carlos. Carlos had a first daughter named Gloria, Gloria Reynolds. In her honour—and of all his ancestors who lived in the Alentejo—Julian, Gloria’s son, produces a quality wine that bears his mother’s name: Gloria Reynolds. (image merely illustrative)
