WINE DESCRIPTION

Marquês de Borba Reserva Tinto is a premium red wine produced by the renowned Portuguese winery, Marquês de Borba. This wine is made from carefully selected grapes grown in the Alentejo region, known for its hot and dry climate, which results in concentrated and flavorful wines. The vineyards are located on gentle slopes with clay and limestone soils, providing ideal conditions for the grapes to thrive. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels, resulting in a complex and elegant wine with notes of dark fruit, spices, and vanilla.
