Borges Ruby Port Wine

Borges Ruby Port Wine offers a fruity profile within a traditional style, already showing certain evolution in its approximately 4-year-old batch.

The classic range of Borges Port Wines is distinguished by respecting a traditional style, seeking a harmonious synthesis between the evolution time and the freshness of the batches. In this case, the Borges Ruby presents a fruity profile that reflects its maturity and evolution, providing complexity and richness to the palate.

Regarding the vinification and aging process, after receiving the grapes in perfect conditions, destemming and shelling are carried out. Fermentation with the skins takes place for 3 to 4 days, with regular pump-overs for greater extraction of color and aromas. Subsequently, the skins are separated from the must and wine spirit is added at 77% v/v, achieving that the wine reaches 19% alcohol and between 90 and 120 g/l of reducing sugars typical of the grape. Aging is carried out in larger capacity containers, allowing the flavors to develop and integrate harmoniously.

The Borges Classic range is characterized by presenting fresher, younger and fruitier wines, highlighting special batches that reveal the vitality and youth inherent to Port Wine. Borges Ruby, as a representative of this range, invites you to enjoy the richness and complexity that only a quality Port can offer.
