Adega de Borba Licoroso White
Designation: DOC Borba
Grape varieties: Aragonez
Soil: Schist
Winemaker: Óscar Gato
Vinification: This liqueur wine is produced only from the variety “Roupeiro”, the white most important variety in Alentejo region. After a selection of the best well-matured grapes directly in the vineyards, in the Adega they are carefully crushed, then separated from the must. We add a special high-qualitative brandy to the must to stop fermentation, thus creating a sweeter wine in the mouth. To improve its exceptional characteristics, then the liqueur wine ages for 6 to 8 months in French oaken casks.
