An opulent effort is all about giving pleasure to the pallet and carrying the cuisine on its strong back up to the peak of its taste 2011 Jorge Ordonez "Victoria" Moscatel (raisined) Malaga, Spain An alluring perfume of jasmine and honey, with flavors of liquid apricot and pear is delivered by this raisened Moscatel from the southern Sierra Malaga region along the coast of the sea. About Garnacha Borsao is the benchmark for premium Spanish Garnacha. Garnacha has been one of the greatest preservers of this variety. Garnacha is living a huge revival world-wide thanks to its fruit-driven character, soft tannins and pleasant mouth feel, that make it perfect to match a great variety of meals. It originated in Aragón, where Borja is located and it owes its development throughout Europe to the strength of the Kingdom of Aragón, whose expansion made Garnacha be well established in the Rhône Valley in the 19th century, Italy and Sardinia.
