N.M. Borges uses traditional methods such as “canteiro,” where the wine ages slowly in wooden barrels in unheated rooms, and “estufagem,” a controlled heating process for younger and less expensive wines. These methods give the wines a unique aromatic depth and longevity.
Founded in Madeira in 1877, it is now managed by the 4th generation that produces excellent wines thanks also to the unique terroir: of volcanic origin, the island of Madeira is located about 1000 km southwest of Lisbon in the Atlantic Ocean. The summers are hot and the winters are mild. The sea breeze affects the flavor of the wines that have excellent acidity, both for the climate and for the volcanic and clay soil.
STYLISTIC
The grapes used include prized varieties such as Sercial, Verdelho, Boal, Malvasia and Tinta Negra, selected from vineyards located in different areas of the island. The winemaking takes place in accordance with tradition, with fermentations at controlled temperatures and prolonged refinements, which give the wines complexity and harmony.
