Winery 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.”
Personal Review:
The smell of this wine was delicious! It smelled like strawberries! It reminded
me of a combination of strawberry jelly and black raspberry jelly! The taste of
this wine was surprising in a good way. For being a red wine, I was expecting
it to be thicker bodied and heavier alcohol content, but it tasted like a rose
wine. It had a lot of strawberry components to it and was smooth and thin. I
really enjoyed this wine. I did not have it with food, but I would definitely
like to try it again with a meal.
