Dale,
Picked up a bottle last week and tried it over the weekend. Very nice. This
Borsao is a blend of 75% Garnacha and 25% Tempranillo, while the Vina Borgia
Campo de Borja was 100% Garnacha. The blend had a much softer, more
'finished' feel to it.

We had a bit left that I'm going to use in a reduction sauce for some duck
I'm making tonight.

Jon
