Tucked away in the northeast corner of Spain in Catalonia, Costers del Segre is a "go-to" region for bargain hunters. Its continental climate and lime-rich, well-drained soils bring forth grapes that balance ripe fruit and acidity - and its existence in the shadows of Spain's more prestigious areas presents an economic advantage for wine lovers.
The 2020 La Boscana Tinto, a blend of 60% Tempranillo, 30% Garnacha, and 10% Syrah, has aromas and flavors of blackberries and blackcurrants layered with secondary notes of dark chocolate, vanilla, and subtle toasty oak. The palate is medium-to full-bodied and deftly balances bright acidity with velvety tannins. The wine finishes with notes of savory herbs and lingering black fruit characters.
