Critic Review
86 Points – Robert Parker
Also 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. It is hard to believe a wine this good can sell for $7 a bottle. Enjoy it over the next 1-2 years.

My Review

  • Smell: cherry, oak, earthy, strawberry
  • Taste: cherry, strawberry, raspberry, oak
  • This wine had nice tannins coming in at the end
Overall this wine was pretty good, not my favorite but good. I did not pair this wine with food.
