Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha 2013
Campo de Borja, Aragon, SpainSuper ripe black fruit, leather, smoked plum, fragrant dark blossoms and ample lashings of pepper fill this full, voluminous garnacha from Campo de Borja DO. This is the top cuvée of Borsão, drawn from 30 to 65-year-old, head-pruned, garnacha from the slopes of the extinct Moncayo volcanic hills. The combination of older French oak barrels (for 10 months) and stainless steel is apparent, with brisk, bright and sweet dark fruit harnessed by a firm but sticky frame. Supple and fleshy on the palate, this expressive red finishes with sweet pipe tobacco, bitter blackberry thorns, perfumed violets and potent vanilla.Tasted: 03 June 2016Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $21.79 | 750ml | BCLS |
