Full tasting note and wine making-

Tres Picos has a bouquet of mature red fruits with floral notes that are typical of the best Grenache grapes. The palate is rich and well-structured showing flavours of blackberries, strawberries and tones of leather, vanilla and a smoky burnt treacle tang. These are perfectly combined with a sweet and pleasant tannin, with a generous and balanced finish. The grapes come from vineyards that are between thirty five and forty years old and fermented in stainless steel tanks with twenty one days maceration on skins followed by maturation for ten months in French oak barriques.

Bodegas Borsao was established in 1959. In 2001 it joined with two other of the most progressive, co-operative, cellars in the Campo de Borja region to form a limited company.In the Campo de Borja zone east of Rioja, Borsao sources grapes from over 700 member growers covering 2,400 hectares from vineyards foothills of the Moncayo mountain. The climate is arid, with hot dry days, and cool nights �which allow optimum acidity levels to be maintained within the grapes. Grenache and Macabeo grapes thrive in these conditions and represents more than 80% of total production.Borsao has access to a large selection of vineyard plots at different altitudes, and hence to a wide range of great quality grapes. They are recognised for their entry level varietals �as outstanding examples of easy-to-drink inexpensive wines �as they are for their premium wines, in particular the iconic, multi award winning Tres Picos.
