Our vineyards

Our vineyards are located in a rustic and romantic setting at the south of the Principality, on the slopes of the Solà of the Muxella, scattered across small terraces facing southeast, at 1,190 meters above sea level.

This unique, nature surrounded location enjoys a privileged orientation facing southeast, receiving the first morning sun rays in the entire valley and the breeze coming from the heights of Casamanya de Ordino. Arriving at the vineyards is breathtaking: an all-terrain car ride climbing 300 meters in altitude over the distance of one kilometer is quite the adventure!

The Borda Sabaté vineyards spread out across 12 terraces. Labor in the field is done by hand, with the help of minor cutting-edge machinery. The use of organic products is paramount and the grape variety has been meticulously chosen for its perfect adaptation to cold climates, to ensure a great quality wine. The grape variety planted in Borda Sabaté is:

Riesling

Is the base for the production of our Escol wine. This white variety of german heritage, provides aromatic qualities and abundant nuances, presenting a natural acidity and unparalleled and characteristic freshness. 

Cornalin

This swiss born variety (indigenous of the Aosta Valley), is very well adapted to our high-altitude, yet mediterranean mountain terraces. Is the base for our Torb wine. Its aroma will instantly engage you.

Merlot and syrah

Two majestic varieties known worldwide which, according to the weather, be it warm or cold, can produce high quality, greatly distinctive wines.

Pinot noir

Pinot Noir is one of the grand grape varieties, highly appreciated in the world thanks to its uniqueness. The wines produced out of this variety feature a remarkable delicacy. Its fruity and acidic qualities provide great balance.

At Borda Sabaté Cellar we’re constantly in the pursuit of excellence, that is why we keep making tests and experimenting with other varieties, to discover which one will adapt best to our soil and weather and its resulting wine.

Our main priority is the respect for the environment and our soil, and proof of that is the Ecocert stamp of approval, bestowed to us since the very beginning. We are proud to say that we’re the only organic wine producers in Andorra, as we continue to execute organic farming with hints of biodynamic agriculture.
