Campo de Borja, Aragón, Spain
The description on the bottle made this wine sound so appealing; the nose made me desire an urgent sip. But the flavor lacked something to be desired. It was overly dry, bitter, and not very flavorful past the overwhelming alcohol flavor. It tasted more like a bottle of rubbing alcohol with a bitty of cherry juice added for flavor and had the feeling of a cotton ball in the mouth, wicking away all moisture.
