Portugal, Borba
Description
Rótulo de Cortiça–one of Adega de Borba’s ex-libris-was produced from the most typical varieties in the Alentejo region, sub-region of Borba. Originating from old vines, the grapes were strictly controlled during the maturation process and harvested in small quantities. After the grapes de-stemming and crushing, the alcoholic fermentation began. It was performed for about 10 to 15 days at a controlled temperature of 24ºC in order to extract the greatest aromas and flavours of the grapes. Aged for 12 months in 3rd and 4th year French oak barrels. Aged for another 6 months in the bottle.
