Collection: Bodega Borsao
Bodega Borsao is situated in Borja, in the Northwest of the province of Zaragoza. Considered to be a sub-unit with its own characteristics within the region of Moncayo, it is placed within the occidental sector of the province.
This internationally recognized wine producer - one of the world´s leading Garnacha producers - was established in 1980 and has almost 7,500 hectares. The vine-growing assets of the “Campo de Borja” D.O. are very rich as regards “garnachas”. Garnacha represents over 60% of the D.O. vineyard plantings.
The oldest vineyards of the D.O. date back to 1145 and more than 2,000 of the 5,000 hectares of Garnacha are between 30 and 50 years old. The production is not high, but wine wise it is held in high esteem, due to the structural and aromatic complexity they give to the wines.
This diversity of microclimates and soils enriches the nuances of the impressive “Garnacha” vine-growing assets of this land and enables them to call campo de borja, the empire of garnacha. Other varieties are Tempranillo, Mazuela, Cabernet, Merlot and Syrah in red wines and Macabeo, Chardonnay and Moscatel. Bodegas Borsao represents almost 36% of the total D.O. vineyard surface.
