Borsao Cabriola 2019 - 750ml

92pts Wine Enthusiast

Dark violet-red in the glass, this wine has lively aromas of cherry, rose petal and fennel seed. A beautiful floral note permeates the palate alongside flavors of blackberry preserves, blueberry, milk chocolate and clove that are wrapped in a layer of velvety tannins.

92pts James Suckling

The dark roasted spices and hints of cocoa powder are nicely woven to the deep aromas of dark cherries and dried plums. It is juicy and pretty sleek on a medium-bodied palate with creamy but present tannins and a long, bright finish.

90pts Wine Spectator

Offers ripe, juicy boysenberry and red currant fruit meshed with a savory mix of grilled herbs and tobacco, tarry smoke and balsamico. Chewy and medium- to full-bodied, with refreshing orange peel acidity.

Winemaker Notes

Cabriola is a specific jumping maneuver that a horse is trained to perform after years of exacting dressage. The movement requires great technique and precision of the rider and the horse working as a team. Much like the relationship between a winemaker and vineyards, combining masterful technique and passion that results in elegance and art.

The wine is an elegant ruby and garnet color and offers aromas of vanilla and intense fruity notes on the palate with soft tannins coming from the wood. It has a long and pleasant aftertaste, perfectly structured and fleshy.

Blend: 55% Garnacha, 39% Syrah, 6% Mazuela
