Viña Borgia Rosé BIB 3L
Wine Description
This 100 % Garnacha is a crisp and elegant Rosé from the Campo de Borja DO in northeastern Spain. Located between the Sierra de Moncayo mountain range and the Ebro River valley, this historic region has produced wine since the late 12th century. The continental climate is mitigated by the “cierzo” wind that cools the vineyards nightly.
