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: This wine was not what I
expected it to be after seeing the color. It was more light-bodied and the
taste wasn't as heavy or bold as you'd guess. The nose was full of strawberries
and black cherries, however I didn't find that on the taste. The wine was
extremely round, light, and had a tight flavor. Not bad for a red or for 7
bucks!
