Borsao 2014 Tres Picos Garnacha
100% Garnacha | Alc: 14.5% – Earthy and Spicy
Campo de Borja, Spain

Winemaker’s notes:
Very intense cherry red color with tones of purple. Presents on the nose a great concentration of aromas of ripe red fruit with floral nuances. In the mouth it is a well structured rich wine that evokes tastes of blackberry, plum and tones of leather and vanilla, with a soft and silky tannin.

#39 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2016

Critical Acclaim:
“The outstanding 2014 Tres Picos (Garnacha) is 100% Grenache and comes from some of their oldest Grenache vineyards on the slopes of the Moncayo Mountains. Yields are less than two tons of fruit per acre and this wine was aged in neutral French oak and stainless-steel tanks for ten months prior to bottling. It’s a beautiful wine, with plenty of Southern Rhône-like black cherry liqueur, garrigue, pepper, licorice and spice. It is medium to full-bodied, lusty and heady. This is a beauty to drink over the next 2-3 years.”  90 Pts – The Wine Advocate

“A plush texture masks the firm structure, as blackberry and boysenberry flavors mingle with toast, menthol and mineral notes, backed by well-integrated tannins. Drink now through 2020.”  91 Pts – Wine Spectator
