2007 Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha

Campo de Borja, Spain

Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha is a perennial Best Buy hailed by many of the world's wine critics as an awesome value. We consider this wine one of the top gems of Spanish wine. The grapes come from vineyards that are between 35 and 40 years old. Located on uneven terrain at an altitude of 600 to 700 meters, these vineyards yield under four and a half tons of grapes per hectare, affording superb richness and concentration in the wine. This 2007 vintage of Borsao Tres Picos received a 91-point rating from The Wine Advocate. Dr. Jay Miller writes, "If I had to select just one Spanish wine that consistently over-delivers year after year, it would be Tres Picos." Need we say more? While supplies last!

Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha is cherry red in color, deep and sweet, with medium body. On the nose, there is a boundless bouquet of cherries and ripe red fruits with traces of flowers typical of Garnacha. On the palate, it is rich and well-structured with flavors of blackberries, strawberries, vanilla, plums, and leather notes. Beautifully balanced with sweet tannins, Borsao Tres Picos leaves a long, silky finish.
