Product information
Borges Tawny Reserve
Popis
Tridsať- až štyridsaťročné vinice na bridlicových pôdach v Doure dávajú hrozno pre túto zmes. Rastú v tradičných výsadbách aj na terasách.
Zmes zrelá sedem až osem rokov
Po troch až štyroch dňoch, keď mušt leží na šupkách a naberá z nich farbu, sa kvasenie zastaví vínnym destilátom, čím vínu ostane zvyškový cukor. Zrenie potom pokračuje v menších drevených kadiach a sudoch a priemerný vek zmesi je sedem až osem rokov.
Ako ho podávať
Funguje ako aperitív, ale sadne aj k portugalským žĺtkovým zákuskom, k orechovým dezertom, k tvrdým syrom či k foie gras. Pri jedle si rozumie s tučnejšími rybami.

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.
