Flor de Goda
Campo de Borja Garnacha
Campo de Borja, Aragón, Spain
Clear deep ruby in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced primary aromas of green peppercorns, strawberries, and raspberries; on the palate, it's off-dry with high acidity, high tannins, high alcohol, full body, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of stewed strawberries, raspberry sauce, candied cherries, black tea, and crushed gravel with a medium finish. This wine is intense and complex, but a little sweeter than I remembered. Overall, I rate this wine as good.

Sep 22nd, 2025I opened this on Thanksgiving, and it was more tart than I remembered from previous tastings. I cloded the bottle and moved on to other wines. After sitting in my fridge for a week, it smells like prunes, black cherries, and a hint of chocolate on the nose; medium minus acidity; medium tannins; tastes like blackberry sauce and crushed gravel with a long finish. I love this wine, and Nellie likes it too. I will decant this wine for at least an hour the next time I open a bottle. It's much more impressive after a week in my fridge.

Dec 8th, 2024Medium ruby in color; stewed strawberries, dried herbs, and raspberries on the nose; high acidity; medium tannins; tastes like candied cherries, blood oranges, hibiscus, and a hint of black pepper with a long finish. Nellie and I love it! Pairs really well with pork.
