The Borsao winery

The origins date from 1958, the year in which the winery was purchased from a private individual and the Borja Cooperative and the Borsao original brand was founded, in 1981 it was when the first bottles were commercialized and in 1991 the first exports were made.
Some years later, the cooperatives of Pozuelo and Tabuenca joined Borja's, contributing their human resources and most importantly, their vineyards. This union was carried out in 2001 establishing a new company called Bodegas Borsao S.A.
The 700 members of the cooperatives and the management team promoted the foundation of the new winery: beginning to set the guidelines for the care of the vineyards, grape harvest and reception and continuing with a renovation of the winery's facilities. Currently there has been more professionalization and now we are 375 wine growers.
The technological capacity, the modernity of the facilities, the great potential of the vineyards and a thorough sensitivity for the work well done, make up the basic pillars of the winery, consolidating the BORSAO brand as the maximum exponent in quality wines of our denomination of Borja Field Origin.
