Persoonlijke gegevens
The grapes are matured on a chalky, stony soil with sandy earth. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, after which the wine matures for 12 months: 40% in American oak barrels and 60% in stainless steel tanks. This 100% Syrah has an intense deep red color with powerful aromas of blackberries, berries and ripe notes of coffee beans, eucalyptus and dried plums. The taste is full, with a remarkably soft tannin structure and a sultry spicy aftertaste.

| Sommy Pairing Beschrijving | Deze krachtige, volle Syrah toont intense dieprode fruittonen van bramen en zwarte bessen met rijpe accenten van koffie, gedroogde pruim en eucalyptus, ondersteund door zwoele kruiden en soepele maar aanwezige tannines door 12 maanden houtopvoeding. Daardoor sluit hij uitstekend aan bij rundvlees, lam, stoofschotels en barbecue: de stevige structuur en rokerige, kruidige toetsen snijden door vet en geurige sauzen heen en versterken gegrild of gestoofd vlees. Kies bij voorkeur voor langzaam gegaarde stoofschotels, lamskarbonades met rozemarijn en knoflook of gegrild vlees met een zwarte peper- of koffie-rub om de rijke smaken van de wijn extra tot hun recht te laten komen. |

BODEGAS BORSAO SYRAH CAMPO DE BORJA ZARIHS 2018
Score
91
Sweet coffee, chocolate and smoke to the tarry black cherries. A full-bodied syrah with firm tannins that provide some chew to the back of the palate, before a slightly warming finish. Give it one more year to come around. The woody sweetness and tannins are a little dominating now. Drink in 2024.

The Bodega Borsao was founded in 2001 and is located on the Campo de Borja vineyards. This Bodega is responsible for the spectacular progress of this area. The vineyard is in Moncayo and lies at an altitude of 400 to 700 meters, where the queen of the grape is planted: the Garnacha or Grenache which is able to survive perfectly in the harsh weather conditions of the area. The Tres Picos and Tres Lagunas are made from 100% Garnacha grapes that are harvested from very old vines. The vineyards are fairly cool at about 650 meters above sea level in Campo de Borja, south of the Rioja. Partly because of this, the grapes ripen slowly and gradually. An important condition for the production of complex and high quality wines. After fermentation, a short maturation follows on small oak casks. In taste, the wines are certainly the equal of a complex Châteuneuf-du-Pape, which is also mainly made from Grenache grapes. They easily win in price! The well-known American wine writer Robert Parker invariably scores 90 points or more. The Tres Picos is an internationally renowned wine. The Tres Lagunas is only imported by us to the Netherlands and is absolutely unique in terms of price / quality.
