Every year since 5 years, the market is used to expect our new collection of Single & Bivarietals, which was selected and prepared by our winemakers.

So we have the pleasure to inform that our new single & bivarietals from the vintage of 2006 are now available!

Thanks to these yearly collections, the Adega Coop. Borba proposes to show the oenological characteristics of the most emblematic Portuguese grape varieties. From the vintage 2006, we decided to launch two completely new wines: one with 100% Alicante Bouschet and another one with 50% Aragonez and 50% Touriga Nacional, particularly full-bodied and elegant. Moreover, the winemakers prepared another red wine 100% Alfrocheiro, which is really unique. To complete the collection we launched also a white wine, 50% Arinto and 50% Antão Vaz, which has a powerful aroma of tropical fruit and a specially elegant and fresh taste.
