Borba Red 2023

Adega de Borba is located in the Alentejo region of Portugal, a renowned wine-producing area known for its warm climate and rich soils which contribute to the character of the wines.

Borba Red is typically made from a blend of traditional Portuguese grape varieties common to the Alentejo region, such as Aragonez (Tempranillo), Trincadeira, and Alicante Bouschet.

The wine is produced using modern vinification techniques combined with traditional methods. Grapes are carefully harvested and fermented under controlled temperatures to preserve the fruit character. The wine is then aged in stainless steel tanks or oak barrels to develop complexity and balance.

Borba Red displays a deep ruby color with aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, complemented by subtle spicy and earthy notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with smooth tannins and a balanced acidity, offering a pleasant and lingering finish.
