Borgia Garnacha 2024

The wine region of Campo de Borja, in central northern Spain is sometimes referred to as the Empire of Garnacha because it's by far the main grape of the area. And for decades Bodegas Borsao, the leading cooperative here, have been making ripe and appealing wines, such as this, from the variety. Juicy brambly fruit and fresh redcurrants dominate this generous easy drinking wine while cherry and strawberry flavours give way to soft tannins, good acidity and hint of spiciness to make an extremely approachable and versatile wine.

Very versatile and easily enjoyable it's great by itself and goes well with all sorts of hearty dishes. Slow cooked belly pork is an example of a particulary good pairing.

Bodegas Borsao, a cornerstone of Campo de Borja in northeast Spain, is a co-operative embodying the region's viticultural spirit. With a legacy steeped in Garnacha, Borsao champions the grape's expressive potential. Their vineyards, nestled in the Moncayo foothills, yield fruit that's concentrated yet balanced, thanks to the region's continental climate. Borsao's commitment to sustainable practices underscores their respect for the land. This dedication to both tradition and innovation has earned them a reputation for crafting wines that are both approachable and age-worthy.
