The Borges Tawny Port Wine is a standout example from the classic range of Borges Port Wines, combining a fruity profile with a traditional style that already shows some evolution. This wine belongs to a batch with 6/7 years in its mid-age, which gives it unique characteristics.

Made with grape varieties typical of the Douro Demarcated Region, such as Touriga-Franca, Touriga-Nacional, Tinta-Barroca, Tinto-Cão, and Tinta-Roriz, the winemaking process begins with the crushing and destemming of the grapes, followed by a 3 to 4-day fermentation with the skins immersed in regular pump-overs to extract color and aromas.

Subsequently, the skins are separated from the must, and vinous brandy at 77% v/v is added to achieve an alcohol content of 19% and between 90 and 120 g/l of reducing sugars specific to the grape. Aging is carried out in small capacity casks and wooden barrels, allowing the wine to develop its complexity and character over time.

This Borges Tawny, within the Coroa range, presents a fresh, younger, and fruitier profile compared to other Port Wines. Standing out as wines of special batches, they represent the youth and vitality that Port Wine can offer.

The Borges Tawny is an exceptional choice for those who appreciate the fusion of tradition and freshness in a wine that has matured gracefully and promises a unique experience with each sip.
