MR Mountain Wine


This is a bottle of MR Mountain Wine from Telmo Rodrigues. One of three wines from Malaga by that estate, MR is made from bought grapes from growers practising traditional viticulture. The wine (like the others in the range) is made from 100% Moscatel, which are hand picked and then partially dried in the sun before pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Although Malaga is traditionally thought of as a fortified wine, both the two brand I have found here in Hong Kong (Telmo Rodrigues and Jorge Ordonez) concentrate on the older style of Malaga wines, which had not been fortified.
