Tasting - Vina Borgia


Vina Borgia
Borsao
Campo de Borja, Spain
2012
$6.95

Wine review: Made from 100% Grenache, the 2012 Vina Borgia was fermented and aged in stainless steel. Its medium dark ruby color is followed by abundant notes of strawberries and black cherries offered in a straightforward, medium-bodied, soft, hedonistic, round style. 

My review: Dark purple or dark cherry color. Blackberry and black current like fruity and spicy forward on the nose followed by full bodied with long finish. This wine is dry with medium spicy at the end. This wine is a fruit forward and fruit dominant wine since it was aged in stainless steel barrels. I can pair this wine with any red meat dishes, such as steak, pork rib with medium sauce, and beef brisket.
