Baga is a dark blue grape with thick skin. It is known for its intense aromas of blackberries, blackcurrants, and plums. It has a taste profile that is full-bodied with robust tannins and vibrant acidity.

Baga is grown primarily in the Bairrada, Portugal. It is also grown in other parts of Portugal such as the Beiras and Douro regions. Baga is a late ripening variety, and is usually harvested in late October. It prefers cooler climate with good drainage. The grapes are usually destemmed, crushed and fermented in stainless steel tanks. The wines are usually aged in oak barrels for a period of time to soften the tannin. The Bairrada region is known for producing the most classic style: full-bodied with lots of red and black furit, firmed tannin and refreshing acidity. The Douro region produces more fruity and aromatic wines with softer tannins. Baga wines pair well with rich and flavorful dishes such as grilled meats, stews, and game.

Baga wines are known for their longevity and can age for, comfortably, two decades.
