This iconic wine is a Pinot Noir grown in the Upper Penedes (Santa Maraa de Miralles) at 520 meters above sea level, where cool summer nights allow for the balanced ripening of these delicate grapes. Mas Borra s is one of the few Pinot Noirs currently produced in Spain. One location that stands out is at our historic single vineyard of Mas Borras, giving its name to this exceptional, distinct wine, awarded by the International Jury at the Wine Olympiad in Paris in 1985.

Good aromatic length (spices and coffee). The supple, fragrant tannins express the elegance and finesse of Pinot Noir. An excellent accompaniment for roast meats, cooked hams and creamy cheeses.
