Adega de Borba Reserva Red
With grapes from the most typical Alentejo grape varieties produced in the sub-region of Borba, the label Cortiça wine was produced, a true ex-libris from the Adega de Borba. Coming from old vines, the grapes had a strict control in the evolution of the maturation, having been harvested in small quantities. In the Cellar, after the destemming and soft crushing of the grape, the alcoholic fermentation began, which lasted for about 10-15 days with the temperature controlled at 24ºC, for greater extraction of the aromas and fruity flavors of the grape. In order to increase the polyphenolic complexity, the tannins and the structure of the wine, it remained in the vat in a post-fermentative maceration process. The malolactic fermentation occurred later in stainless steel containers. To enhance and elevate its organoleptic characteristics, the wine aged 12 months in 3rd and 4th year barrels, French oak and exotic wood barrels. followed by a six-month bottling stage in the basement. Aroma fine and elegant, suggesting black fruits, compote and white chocolate. Contains Sulfites.

Esporão Private Selection Red
Esporão Private Selection Red: Syrah and Aragonez were fermented in small stainless steel mills, with alternating step-by-step with short manual overruns done 2-3 times per day, depending on our daily taste throughout the fermentation. We prefer to ferment the Alicante Bouschet in a small stainless steel tank and we did the reassemblies manually. The reason for this choice is that this caste has a relatively brittle film, which may lead to an exaggerated extraction of tannins. After pressing, we kept the wines separated, in order to better understand the evolution of each one. The malolactic fermentation took place in the barrels and spontaneously. 30% in new barrels and 70% in used barrels (1 year), of 225l French oak barrels (Taransaud; Saury; Boutes). After 18 months of internship, during which we only made a transfer immediately after the malolactic, we made the final lot, which was bottled on May 28, 2014, only with a slight filtration and without any type of bonding. In the nose predominates the black fruit with slight notes of smoke and spices. In the palate it shows density and richness, shows itself balanced, with good acidity and fine tannins. The ending is long and persistent. Contains Sulfites.
