Bodegas Borsao Tres Picos Garnacha 2006
One of the best "bang for the buck" wines you will ever find. This wine has scored 87+ points from both Parker and Spectator since the first release in 2001, but Wine Merchant customers have know how good yet inexpensive the Borsao wines are from the "regular" $8 Borsao. The Tres Picos is their "reserve" Grenache, and really ups the ante on all the flavors that you love about the regular Borsao, but finessed by the addition of oak barrel aging. This deep ruby-tinged wine boasts flavors of kirsch liqueur, licorice, white pepper rounded out by a note of vanilla oakiness. Wine Advocate Bodegas Borsao consistently delivers great bang for the buck. Several of their value-priced wines are listed on the Best Buy chart at the end of this report. If I had to select just one Spanish wine that consistently over-delivers year after year, it would be Tres Picos. The 2006 Tres Picos Garnacha has an enticing bouquet of wild cherry, spice box, and floral notes that leaps from the glass. Remarkably rich, balanced, and intensely flavored, this wine can be best described as cherry pie in a glass. It is for hedonists only. As always, it is an awesome value. Score: 91. —Jay Miller, February 2008.Customers who purchased this item also bought:
