Explore the Wine Regions of Portugal with Vinhos Borges
Portugal is globally recognized for its richness and diversity in wine. Each region tells a unique story through its wines, with unforgettable characteristics reflecting the terroir, traditions, and people who cultivate them. Vinhos Borges is proud to be present in some of the country's most prestigious wine regions. Today, we invite you to explore these regions and discover how Vinhos Borges honors authenticity and excellence.
Douro: Where Grandeur Meets Tradition
The Douro region, one of the world’s first demarcated wine regions, is the birthplace of wines of exceptional quality. It is here that Vinhos Borges captures the soul of a terroir defined by steep slopes, terraced vineyards, and the Douro River as a backdrop.
Quinta da Soalheira, one of Borges' most iconic estates, plays a key role in this region. Acquired in 1904, it symbolizes the company’s commitment to high-quality viticulture and is the origin of some of the most distinctive wines in Borges' portfolio.
Among them, the Borges Douro Reserva Red 2022 stands out for its deep aroma and remarkable structure, reflecting a perfect balance between traditional grape varieties and the richness of the region's soils.

Dão: Elegance and Complexity
Nicknamed the "Portuguese Burgundy," the Dão region is synonymous with elegant wines with great aging potential. Surrounded by mountains, this region benefits from a unique microclimate that imparts distinct characteristics to its wines.
Quinta de São Simão da Aguieira, owned by Vinhos Borges and located in the heart of the Dão, hosts the region’s largest continuous vineyard area. This iconic estate reflects the company’s commitment to producing exceptional wines and has significant historical connections to João de Sacadura Botte Corte-Real, a visionary in Portuguese viticulture.
Vinhos Borges' Dão wines, such as Borges Touriga Nacional, stand out for their aromatic complexity, freshness, and structure, living up to the region's stellar reputation.
