Borsao 2009 Blanco Viura (Campo de Borja)

Country: Spain / Blanco
Variety: Viura Northern Spain
Winery: Borsao / Campo de Borja

This warm-climate Viura hits with plodding barrel aromas and flavors but there’s not a lot of high-quality natural material to support that much faux/forced oak. Along the way it hints at mealy apple, spice, cinnamon powder and resin. A lot of noise but not much music.
