Borges - Tradition and innovation in Madeira wine production
H. M. Borges Sucrs. Lda., founded in 1877, is one of the most renowned and traditional Madeira wine producers on the Portuguese island of the same name. The family-run company stands for outstanding quality and the preservation of the unique Madeira wine-making tradition.
Borges cultivates its own vineyards in the best locations on Madeira and also sources grapes from selected plots on the island. The house is particularly well known for:
Traditional dry berry selections (Sercial, Verdelho, Boal, Malvasia)
Complex vintage Madeiras (Colheitas and Frasqueiras)
Exclusive cask finish editions
One of Borges' trademarks is the use of the traditional "Canteiro" system, in which the wines are exposed to natural heat in oak barrels under the roof. This gives the wines their characteristic complexity and longevity. The Borges 20 Years Old Malvasia, which is one of the best sweet Madeira wines, deserves a special mention.
The company combines these traditional methods with state-of-the-art cellar technology. Borges also favours sustainable cultivation and has received several awards for its ecological initiatives.
Visitors can tour the historic warehouses in Funchal and discover the fascinating world of Madeira wine. With its perfect balance between tradition and innovation, Borges remains one of the most important Madeira producers.
