Baga in sparkling wine

Baga is an emblematic red grape of Bairrada. When vinified as white, colour is left behind while structure remains.

01

Blanc de noirs, Baga identity

The pulp is not deeply coloured. Limiting skin contact makes it possible to obtain a white base wine from red grapes.

Baga retains acidity, structure and a vinous presence, useful qualities for long lees ageing.

Four readings in the Borlido range

Reserva, Super Reserva and Cuvée Grande Reserva are vinified as white. Rosé uses controlled skin contact for colour.

Minimum ageing rises from 18 to 36 months, while current lots spend even longer in the cellar.
