Description
Borgia by Borsao Macabeo, DO Campo de Borja, Spain, 2024
Grape: 100% Macabeo (Viura), sustainable farming, unoaked
Producer Tasting Note:
Gentle aromatics and ripe citrus fruit flavours with a clean, fresh finish
Winemaking: Macabeo grown on alluvial soils in the foothills of the Moncayo mountain and the wider region of Aragon. After chilling the must, a short period of skin contact is followed by long slow fermentation at controlled temperature at between 22º and 26ºC in stainless steel tanks.
Estate: The winery was established as a co-operative in 1959. In 2001 it joined with two other progressive, co-operative, cellars in the Campo de Borja region to become the Bodegas Borsao that we know today. Grapes are sourced from over 375 member growers covering 2,100 hectares - nearly a third of the region's total. Borsao has access to a large number of vineyard plots at different altitudes, and hence to a wide selection of fantastic quality grapes. They are recognised for their entry level varietals - as outstanding examples of easy-to-drink inexpensive wines - as they are for their premium wines, in particular the iconic, multi award winning Tres Picos.
Food Match: Grilled white fish, pizza and pasta
