Borges Tawny
Popis
Tawny z Doura začína krátkym pobytom na šupkách: hrozno sa po príchode do pivnice odstopkuje a mušt potom tri až štyri dni fermentuje na šupkách, pričom ho vinári pravidelne prečerpávajú, aby naberal viac farby a arómy. Kvasenie sa zastaví vínnym destilátom, čím vínu ostane zvyškový cukor.
Zrenie v malých sudoch
Víno potom leží v malých drevených sudoch. Odtiaľ má vanilkový tón, ktorý sa vo vôni prelína so zaváraným ovocím, a odtiaľ je aj svetlá farba, akú mladé červené portské nemá. V závere chuti sa čas v dreve pripomenie ešte raz.

Borges
Founded in 1884 by brothers António and Francisco, Sociedade dos Vinhos Borges quickly became one of Portugal's leading winemakers, through a melding of tradition, age-old knowledge, commitment to the land and a passion for wine.
Borges understands the need to master the entire production process, which is why they own four of Portugal’s leading estates in the main demarcated regions: Quinta de Simaens and Quinta do Ôro in the Vinho Verde Region; Quinta da Soalheira in the Douro Region and Quinta de São Simão da Aguieira in the Dão Region. The individual identities of their vineyards underpin the character and authenticity of their wines.
