Vinho Verde fans, take note! This Borges Quinta de Simaens Vinho Verde will amaze you. For anyone who finds a "normal" Vinho Verde too light, you should try this Portuguese wine. We're sure you'll be amazed. This Portuguese gem is made from two indigenous grape varieties: Pederna and Avesso. Pederna is another name for the Arinto grape. This all-rounder from Portugal produces fresh, soft, and fruity wines with a pleasant acidity. Avesso, on the other hand, lacks body and character. It's the ultimate combination that has helped Borges create this superb wine.
The Borges wines from Portugal
Borges Winery has been active in Portuguese winemaking for almost 140 years. Vinhos Borges proves once again that Portuguese winemaking is much more than just the fortified Port. The winery was founded in 1884 by brothers Antonio and Francisco. They are located in the heart of Portugal, in the Dao region. While everyone immediately thinks of the Douro when they think of Portuguese wines, Dao is much tamer than the rugged Douro. This results in refined and smooth wines that are a favorite among many. The success of Vinhos Borges is evident from this. It's no wonder they export their Portuguese wines to over 50 countries worldwide.
