Wine Region:

Borba Alentejo

Also known as Borba and Alentejo-Borba, this region is located to the north of Redondo and south of Portalegre. The first Alentejo subregion to become renowned for its viniculture worldwide, it is but one in eight Alentejo DOC subregions. It is now under the status of Denominação de Origem Controlada, to which it was elevated from Indicação de Proveniencia Regulamentada.  

Borba, which rises above the plains of the Alentejo region, is situated on the slopes of the mountains of Serra de Borba. The region’s soil contains various material, such as schist, marble, and chalk, which contribute to the unique terroir and fruity wines of Alentejo. Alentejo lies to the northeast of the São Mamede’s granite foothills, where cooler temperatures and larger amounts of precipitation bestow the wines with freshness and complexity.
